A 7.25x54 presidente with a veiny, medium texture, mottled, very dark brown, Ecuadorian maduro wrapper, with medium smoothness, medium length cap and a hard bunch.

Wrapper, filler, and binder are based on Dominican Republic recent production as I’m unable to find anything from this era, and being made in Miami.

Bruce aka Ljutic can hopefully correct me on anything that’s wrong.

Slightly uneven burn, short, conical coal, mottled grey, very strong ash, and a perfect draw.

Good smoke volume and subtle, fragrant aroma.

Of ample richness, medium strength, generous body, perfect balance of generous herbal, woody and floral flavors and a generous, dry finish of floral and woody flavors.

No sweetness, bitterness, burn on the tongue, sharpness or saltiness.

Of very good character and overall very good smoke, with a final score of 91 out of 100.


I friggin love cigars
