I sat out on the front porch enjoying a wonderful sunset over the mountains with my wife and a bottle of champainge. I decided to smoke the AF shark and the wife had a Acid Wafe. The wafe had an amazing aroma but she said it got harsh near the end and put it down. She did like the Shark and said it was really really smooth. I got to explaining how different members on the forum were able to pic out flavors in the cigar so she decided to give it a whirl and was able to pick out cedar and leather. I was impressed.
Anyway, I was surprised with the lack of punch this had. Good cedar and leather flavors but I wasn't able to pick anything else out, there was very little to no spice. Has anyone else noted this or am I just a total noob at picking out other flavors?
It was a very good stick but if given the choice between the anejo and an opus I would pick the opus.

i have noticed that, for me it is easier to pick up the more subtle flavors when i am not drinking anything with flavor( anything other than water) and when im alone. (when im alone theres no distraction) and for me it helps to close my eyes upon retrohale.
also ive noticed with the anejo, with 2 or more years on the stick i have more trouble picking out individual flavors
