New smoker, need help identifying cigar

gendoikari87

So a few weeks back i got a cigar at a local stop, it was about 6 bucks and extremely dark. It's got ZERO spice, and extremely smooth and flavorful, slightly, slightly sweet. It was not an acid or anything of the sort. I still have about half of it so i can try and have it identified. But either I took the band off or it never had one. Fairly sure it didn't have one. Anyone have any ideas what this might have been? or other cigars that sound like it.

Unbanded and $6. I'm at a loss. Could the band have been on the foot of the cigar and you removed it in order to smoke it? The look and flavor profile reminds me a bunch of Partagas black label or the Macanudo Vintage Maduro both have bands though. Maybe someone like kuzi could help you. Welcome to the forum by the way.

I thought of the 97 Mac with the metal band, but there are way to many cigars out there that fit this every palate is different profile.

it could have been, or it could have been at the top, I can't remember if I removed it or if it was just never there.

Welcome to the madness! Unfortunately unless you remember exactly where in the B&M you got it...your probably out of luck. Before you smoke any cigar take a picture of it with your phone, or keep the band. That way you'll have a record .

If it came unbanded from a B&M, more than likely it was one of their house blends. Very few branded cigars come without bands. One of the amazing things is that many B&M house blends are actually really good.

if it is extremely dark and came with a band it may be a partagas black

I agree. You may have the best luck in remembering exactly which shelf these came from or getting the shop help to remember you and what they sold you. I hope you can find what you are looking for. Take what's left of the cigar with you. That way they can see the wrapper and get a match for you and also figure out the ring gauge.

Not sure if this is in the Newb Rules list, but especially when starting out in the great adventure of cigar discovery, I found keeping the band or taking a photo to be very helpful. I even kept notes on my phone for a while with date, name of cigar, size and tasting notes.
