The stick I picked up today was the 305 (apparently named after an area code for Miami). The cost was about $7 per stick, which isn’t bad for a “designer” cigar as some can run much higher. The 305 is a Robusto with a Semilla 101 Wrapper grown exclusively for this project. It provided a surprisingly nice smoke that while it’s labeled as a Medium Bodied cigar, could easily pass for a full bodied smoke.

The initial draw had an initial spice to it that calmed down a touch to reveal some rich flavors that did not leave me feeling like I had been smoking the inside of an old shoe. I actually enjoyed this smoke so much that I continued to smoke it past the band (which came off easily with the heat) as I enjoyed the flavor and the aroma of the cigar itself.

The burn was nice and even as well and the ash hung on as well, I tried to let it go as long as I could, but after an inch or so, I cleaned it up a bit. All in all, if you’re looking for a good designer cigar that won’t break the bank to add to your collection, the Room101 sticks would be ideal. I went ahead and picked up another for myself just so I could make sure the first one wasn’t a fluke
