In in-depth assessment was done on Cigar Coop of this cigar.
The Ortega Wild Bunch 2013 Gearhead Gary Crankshaft is the ninth installment in a monthly series of cigars developed by Ortega Premium Cigars. The Ortega Wild Bunch 2013 series is a unique limited production cigar concept that was introduced by Ortega Premium Cigars. The idea behind the Ortega Wild Bunch is to dedicate a cigar to various cigar enthusiasts whom company president Eddie Ortega has personally met during his time in the cigar industry. Gearhead Gary represents the first non-parejo in the series.
Like most of the Ortega Wild Bunch 2013 releases, Gearhead Gary brought its own unique flavor profile. This one was a combination of earth, herbal spice, chocolate, and licorice sweetness. I actually found the flavors on the lighter side. The cigar starts off in the mild to medium-bodied range before making it to medium-bodied in the second half. The strength is at a medium level. The construction was excellent and this was reflected in the burn and draw.
Overall some unique flavors, but I wish the flavors had a little more depth. It’s still a cigar I’d keep five around in order to get a nice change of pace.
