Cigar Musings

T.G.I.F!!! I am still hurting from the beat down the Packers received Thursday night by the Seahawks. If the Packers keep playing like that for the rest of the Season, there is no way they will make it to the playoffs. In the meantime, I am backhere at The Barn yet again and this time I wanted to continue with trying out the various cigars that are part of Ortega’s Cigars, The Wild Bunch collection. I decided to give the Big Bad John a try. Ortega Cigars released 500 boxes back on January 2013 The cigar consists of a Nicaraguan Esteli, Jalapa binder/filler, and topped off with a Nicaraguan Wrapper. I must say I really enjoyed this cigar. Did it beat out my Crazy Jack? Close, but no cigar. See how I did that? Anyway, it is a really good full bodied cigar. The dimensions are a bad ass 6-7/8 inches in length with a 60 ring gauge. Again, just like with all of the Wild Bunch cigars, I took note that Big Bad John gave off a dark, gray smoke and the ash is a dark gray as well and the ash didn’t hold on for very long. It broke off right away at about a 1/4″ or so. Until next time… Light’em Up!
