Quickie: A. Turrent Triple Play Robusto

I had great expectations for this 4.5" x 54 "puro maduro". It began great with loads of espresso and rich dark chocolate that you would expect in a cigar that is 100% maduro.  However, that experience only lasted through about an inch of the short stick before it turned harsh and exhibited an earthy flavor that I could only describe as dirt.  That flavor turn also accompanied burn problems and after having to relight for a third time I retired the stick with a full third of its length left.  Having now smoked three of these sticks I will conclude that they are not to my liking and will pass on them in the future.
