Joya De Nicaragua Rosalones - 448

Surprisingly this cigar had the single worst bunching job I have ever seen. After the first .25" the ash fell and there was a gap large enough to stick a tooth pick in. It was right down the middle. On one side there was a slightly smaller gap where the tobacco didn't touch the binder at all. It was causing an issue. By the half way point I just gave up. The stick wouldn't stay lit, it had turned in to a mushy sponge, and there was a gap in the bunch that I could have stuck my pinky in. Definitely not a good thing in a 48rg cigar. That doesn't even count for the fact that the bunch was so loose it I could actually see between the leaves. I was stupified by the quality of this cigar. I have smoked nearly a whole box of these and never saw anything close to this. I wouldn't be so upset if it hadn't started raining and ended any hopes of getting in a second smoke.
