Description -
medium dark chocolate brown wrapper, very smooth, one small waterspot, just a few fine veins, nothing major.
two sided box press, left and right side are pretty round.
Beautiful triple cap, bunchin at foot looks excellent.
heavy for size in my hands, firm give when pinched.
Pre- Light Aroma -
wraper smells strongly of tobacco and chocolate
foot continues with sweet aromas mixed with manure in a good way
Initial Draw - 10:05 am
medium-light bodied smoke, makes my mouth salivate a bit
draw is a bit tight, like ive experienced with about 20% of the box, however it is not unbearable.
it is one of those cigars that has a tight draw yet produces copious amounts of smoke
Exhaling smoke leaves wood notes mixed with spiced rum sweetness
detecting sweet floral creaminess, aftertaste is very pleasant,
Through the nose, a very bracing wood fire scent, slight watering of eyes.
wrapper is nicely oil, with a light sheen.
ash is classic mottled dark grey/black ringed cuban style.
First Third - 10:10am
smelling smoke from foot is a bit painful, but almost sweet burnt sugar aromas/ caramel
after taste is almost all caramelly nutty sweetness.
burn remains perfectly rounded, even though cigar is only year old.
detecting various taste notes of brown sugar, light christmas spice, pine, and slight tannic notes.
tastes a bit young, no bite or harshness, but just has some slight green overtones.
Second Third - 10:30am
getting the feeling that this particular cigar isnt the finest of it's breed.
grassiness and uncharacteristic young notes are present, however encouraging return of sweet caramel gives me hope
cigar falters and is no longer enjoyable
Final Third - 10:45am
not really enjoyable, so im not gonna continue my review....
Finish - 11:00am
after taste is still honey sweet, which is delightful, it was the smoke during the second half that killed this cigar.
