Obsidian White Noise

First of all, these guys need to do something about their ridiculous labels. They refuse to slide off, and don't peel for beans, leaving you no choice but to nervously peel away at the torn paper, hoping to not chew up the wrapper with your fingernails. I understand that this excessive wrap that covers 3/5 of the cigar is a key element their Identity, but when you cover the damn stick with a label that must be removed but refuses to come off, your branding has failed. The cigar itself is fine, but nothing to write home about. Very pastry-like and generally smooth, with faint notes of earth, cinnamon spice, and nutmeg. Pleasant but unremarkable and very consistent throughout. Not a complex blend. The draw is a little light through the first half, though the construction is solid with a smooth, lightly oily wrapper. Ash is strong with slight flowering and char line is clean. A pretty slow burner. Cinnamon picks up some in the last third, as the smoke and stub get a little too hot (to be fair, I was getting cold sitting in my little gazebo at 14° and was smoking faster than I normally would). I wouldn't turn one down if it was offered to me, but don't see any reason to restock, especially considering how much work it takes just to light the thing up.

Excellent

Flavor is milder , aroma is sweet

This review is for the Torpedo, did receive Double Perfecto. Draw was good , burned evenly. A good medium to Full body smoke, one day would like to try the Double Perfecto when back in stock, the build up in the middle of that Shape might pack the punch I'm looking for

By purchasing 5 boxes, I get a fair price.the main reason for my 5 star rating is that these always come fresh and soft.that is not the case with a lot of the other brands.

Loved the black tried the white Terrific smoke Loved every minute

Ok. But not my favorite

Decent smoke, decent price. 2 out of 10 rolled to tight, flavor was good , draw and burn good on most. I will buy again when price is right.

Nice smokes

Good, easy smoke

Nice taste

These i like a lot for the price it's a great cigar

Smooth excellent draw and a very even ash all the way to the finish.

As promised. Good comfortable smoke.

The cigar starts out a bit harsh but mellows out quite a bit as you smoke it down.

They smoke nice burn a little slow And the flavors a little too peppery for me

Really great flavor, and myself with those around me love the aroma of the smoke it leaves.

Was expecting a smoother cigar. What I got dose nor stay lit that well and can be harsh.

burned a little too fast but good flavor

Good for every day

Good smoke. I like the obsidian Black better

Very smooth with a nice even burn.

This solidly built cigar , relative of the Black Wrapper Obsidian, has a great draw, with lots of smoke, and a just slightly less strength than the Black. I enjoy it a lot, and my friends will often turn down other cigars if there are no white noise in my humidor.

Roll was looser than a local drunk woman in a dive bar in Santa Cruz. After weeks still a wonky burn and I could have rowed down the Mississippi river in it. After months still loose still a bad burn and only a slight enrichment of flavor wich was very average. I wouldn't advise purchasing these and I would save them for the uninvited overopinionated rude guests.

Quick, smooth cigar with medium body.

Smooth draw. Good construction, only had slight tunneling on one. Very delicious. It starts off with a nice toasty/buttery flavor and develops sweetness eventually evolving into an almost dried fruit flavor. One of my favorites. Will definitely order more.

It’s a great cigar but really thick smoke I enjoyed the draw and taste if you can caught them on sale it’s worth the purchase

I had ran out of a medium full cigars saw a good deal on these even though they were small in length very enjoyable while I hesitated to give it a five I felt like it deserves more than four

Nice flavor good size burns a little funky

Good consistent cigar for a good price

This brand is a very smooth cigar I love it and it’s aroma is very nice the cigar is a very nice smoke with no afterbite

One of my favorites. Nice easy smoke with a good even burn

A good smoke.

A smooth smoke all the way to the end.

smokes very well

Solid everyday cigar

This is a great smoke that I've enjoyed sharing with family and friends. Would highly recommend this cigar.

good cigar for money but band very difficult to remove without damaging cigar

Burned uneven is the biggest issue. No matter how slow I smoked it burned uneven. Other than that it's a mediocre cigar. I will stay with the New Cuba's or buy a Gurkha.

Good cigar for mowing and playing golf. Can't complain due to the price, its a good smoke

The smoke was real smooth, but trying to get the white wrap is a pain to get off without damaging the cigar.

Burns to fast not a good tasting cigar

while I like these cigars, and always have. for some reason this box has problems with the wrappers. They are difficult to get off - never had this problem in the past - and sometimes the wrapper rips trying to get them off.

Not bad

Great smoke smooth

Got these in a sampler package. I really enjoyed it. Smooth and mild , a great smoke

Good smoke

It is a good cigar however the paper is wrapped to tightly around the cigar and is very difficult to remove. You might want to let Obsidian know this so they can correct the issue and loosen it a bit.

Great smoke

4 star cigar
