Check out my initial write-up and talkie re: this JSK offering HERE.
This is Serie II of my 18 Sabbaths project. Please read all about it HERE.
What you'll be reading below is a point/counter-point to a KVETCH/KVELL looksie I took at his blend HERE on 1/13/17. I have moved the notes therein to herein and shall address as seen...
THE KVELL
Regally rustic over-all appearance. POINT (as in check, as is samsies).
Minimal veins. Good dose a' tooth. POINT.
Seams hold well gate-to-wire. POINT.
Smooth medium tension'd even draw. POINT.
No hard/soft spots in medium+ pack. POINT.
Burnt offering reach a pale complected easy inch. COUNTER-POINT. More dumping.
Thin burn-line. COUNTER-POINT. A tick wider.
Clearly delineated and full flavors. COUNTER-POINT. Ful flavored, though linear.
Verily nuanced. COUNTER-POINT. Flatter, some.
Richly full-bodied and cleanly so at end. POINT.
Bittersweet and long legg'd finish with complexities. COUNTER-POINT lesser complexities.
Room-note is pungent yet kind. POINT.
Zilch acidic or sour (per se) nor bitey tendencies. POINT.
Nicely umami. COUNTER POINT more-so.
Smooth textured delivery of weighty heighty profile. POINT

THE KVETCH
Some light flaking of ash. COUNTER POINT more-so.
Burn-line has a slight ribbon. POINT.
Transitions with a bit of a jerk. COUNTER-POINT no transitions.
A tick outta balance with strength and backbone lurching. COUNTER-POINT better balance.
Draw complexities could be more-so. POINT.
A lightweight (me) might feel uncomfortably drunk come 3/3. COUNTER-POINT less strength.

THE KIBBITZ
More chocolate, less pepper spices and strength. No familiar cherry. Calmer, over-all. A bit of a linear sleepy lull in the aging process? If so, a common occurrence in cigars -- not to be held against it, per se. Still quite enjoyable of an offering. 

EDITOR'S NOTE
While posted on the Sabbath, this is an automatically generated thing, gentlepersons. These are not written during the Sabbath, but typically on a Friday noon-ish. Shabbot shalom and Gut Shabbos -- and to the goyim: hey, have a heckuva Saturday!
