Buckle up for a long, smooth medium smoke! While sold in bundles, this is hardly what I would call a “bundle” cigar. The first thing that stands out to me is the quality of the wrapper. It’s soft, with almost a velvet like touch. The burn is near perfect, without the need for a single relight or touchup right to the very basic band. The finish third grows richer, but it is best to maintain a a slow cadence to get every bit of the smooth smoke this stick provides. 300 Hands doesn’t offer the complexity that is found in in the pricer Rose of Sharon, but what it does do, it does very well.
I’m a fan of most everything Southern Draw but being a simple kind of guy this one fooled me a bit with the packaging. But make no mistake this is another premium cigar from SD. ROS it isn’t, but still a very well made, CT that’s got a lot of flavor. Perfect burn, and starts mild, but moves to medium. What it does share with ROS is some depth and lots of creamy smoke. This is my favorite of the two sizes I’ve tried thus far. Overall better than 4 stars, but not quite 5 for me.
