Kiki Berger Habano Salomone K by Karen Berger

After the death of her husband Kiki, Karen Berger decided to carry on the labor of love that was Don Kiki Cigars.

The lightly pressed Salomone is a lovely cigar with a oily Habano wrapper that smells of fragrant tobacco. The bunch is firm but not hard and feels pleasant in the hand.

Initial notes of citrusy tobacco are very pleasant and leave you wanting more. Plentiful plumes of smoke enhance the enjoyment.

The almost pure white ash is very firm. This is a very well constructed cigar.

The fragrant mellows a bit into a nice creamy smoke. The smoke is staying cool as well.

A sweetness develops in the first third, further enhancing the flavor. A light pepper develops on the retrohale.

A minor burn correction was necessary at the half way point. The ash fell at the half way point.

At about the third the cigar began to heat up. A few purges helped this, but it quickly became too hot to smoke.

Still, the overall quality of the cigar was excellent and I give it a 8/10, mainly for the burn and the heat. Still a very worthy cigar. Joe Bob says check it out.
