Good solid smoke especially considering the price point. Draw can be a little on the loose end on some but that is not a big deal.

I like most of the cigars from which the yellowcake is comprised, so I thought buying a five pack of these was a no brained. That was not the case. I’ve smoked three and the story was the same each time. Very loose draw and roll, tons of burn touch ups and relights. The flavors weren’t great either. Mostly dark acre flavors which I attribute to the poor construction making the cigars burn hot. I’ll smoke the last couple as dog walkers and wont be ordering them again.

Solid cigar from Caldwell. Being it’s called yellow cake I was hoping for a Connecticut wrapper but can’t have it all. Right at light up it’s cedar with charred meat. There is a molasses flavor that comes along as well. As I work into the 2nd third I do see some raisin come through. The cigar taste was on point. Only thing keeping this from a 5 star review was the burn. I did have to touch it up a couple of times and it tunneled once on me. After correcting it smoked fine. I’ll let the others sit to see if they even out a bit but an overall solid smoke!
