Repost ahead:
Well I have finally made my way through sampling the ample juices I got from my recent NET.com order and there are some real beauties amongst them.
Ariesa is a delightful robust cigar that has a substantial chocolate nutty taste.
Banana Walnut Stout is divine. When I saw the description of this juice I wasn't sure if by stout, the title and description actually meant that strong dark beer called Stout. Once I tried it there was no doubt about it. This juice exemplifies harmony and balance. Banana walnut and stout hardly seems like a good blend of flavors but Clay (or Chelsea) have blended this one superbly.
Grilled Pear and Grilled Pineapple - the flavor profiles don't make sense to me but following some praise for Grilled Pineapple for its combination of pineapple with bold pipe tobacco I just had to explore and it hasn't disappointed. Both of these are superb.
Carrot Cake - Tastes like a carrot cake! Very nice indeed.
Cinnamon Sugar Cookie - another juice that doesn't ordinarily make it into my cart but there has been good reviews on it from the Gourmet juice junkies mob. For those looking for a nice sweet cinnamon oriented juice this one is fantastic. The cinnamon is not a sickly sweet artificial cinnamon that will ghost your drippers for ever. Instead it is a warm baked cinnamon immersed in some bready cake or doughnut flavor. It's actually quite special. I love this juice.
Margarita is another hybrid I really enjoy. The lime and tequila in a light unobtrusive tobacco mix is refreshing and realistic. It doesn't taste artificial at all.
Raven, Mercenary and Eclipse all have an esteemed place in NET.coms cigar offerings. eclipse is an intriguing and full bodied flavor experience with Latakia immersed in a full bodied tobacco taste.
Perhaps the juice that had captured my heart right away is Full Zware. Full Zware is a shag cut RYO maceration. I've always liked RYO and cigarette like NETs so Full Zware fits my profile nicely. What makes it special is that it contains the dimensions of a RYO or cigarette NET but goes one step further to having a full flavor, some Earthy richness and woody boldness. It tastes like a cigarette NET in 3D.
I know there are a lot more juices that I liked in this bunch but these are the ones that left a solid first impression. Some still need to steep a bit more to develop their flavors but I sense great promise.
