This maduro Belicoso is not the prettiest cigar that you'll see. The wrapper was a little a coarse with some veining to it. It had a soft yet fully packed feel that was not displeasing. Prelight aroma was slightly earthy and the draw was good, staying that way throughout. The burn was slightly uneven, but always corrected itself if it strayed, producing a dark grey ash that was slightly loose. It had a strong medium body to it with a very nice earthy/woody flavor that was kind of cubanesque to me. It produced nice mouthfuls of smoke that stayed cool throughout. All in all, a very nice cigar that I would recommend.
