Okay, so I’ve been seeing these “Joe Rogan foundation cigars” popping up everywhere, and, well, I’m a curious guy. I like cigars, I listen to Rogan sometimes, so I figured, why not give these a shot? I’m documenting it all, because, that is what I enjoy.
The Hunt
First thing I did, obviously, I started looking. I’m not a total newbie, but I don’t have a dedicated cigar shop down the street. I hit up some of my regular online spots, checked if any of my local stores did deliveries but didn’t found anything at the first try.
Getting My Hands on Them
After more researches I finally found a website. I ordered a small batch, and it was not cheap.
The First Smoke
Alright, package arrived. I ripped that thing open – I’m not gonna lie, I was pretty excited. I grabbed one of the cigars, gave it a good look. It looked, well, like a cigar. Solidly built, nice wrapper, nothing crazy to report.
I lit it up. First few puffs, I was just kind of getting a feel for it. Not bad, not amazing, just… decent. It was smooth, I’ll give it that. No harshness, which is always a plus.
The Full Experience
I settled in, poured myself a little whiskey, and spent a good hour with this thing. The flavor did develop a bit. Got some earthy notes, a little bit of spice, but nothing that really blew me away. Honestly, it was a pretty standard medium-bodied cigar. Burned evenly, no issues there. I enjoyed my time with it.
My Final Thoughts
So, here’s the deal. Was it a bad cigar? No. Was it worth the hype and the price? Probably not. I’ve had better, I’ve had worse. It’s a solid smoke if you can find it, but I’m not going to hunt it down again.
My search continues.
It might be a good choice if you find it, but do not expect too much.
