I'm curious to know what you guys think of this cigar. I just had my first one and I'm not that impressed. I've only heard good things so I was looking forward to this smoke but I really didn't get much in the flavor department. Just a bold tobacco flavor all the way through. Maybe a couple of puffs of leather and bread in the beginning. The construction was great. Flawless wrapper. Well packed. Perfect draw. Great burn.

Gotta agree with everyone here. I had two MOW - a corona and a double corona and neither did anything for me. Just really bland overall and didn't change too much.

However last night I had a Ruination complements of Ciggy (thanks again!) and it was fantastic. One of the better smokes I've had but like everyone said, pretty strong. You definitely want to smoke that one after a good sized meal 'cause it's hefty. Very good, very complex, and a very nice smoke overall.

I did have a few burn/construction issues with it though but it didn't bother me too much.

Edit: I'll also add that near the end I would have sworn I was chewing on a marshmallow or something - it had a very tasty, very full vanilla/wood flavor to it.

No doubt about it...The Ruination is the better MOW. I love them and make sure I have them in my rotation. As far as complex goes you may have to spend a bit more on a better cigar like a Padron. The MOW Ruination is simply a nice ass kicker with a one dimensional great taste! :thumbsup:
