IPCPR: Alec Bradley Sanctum



Robusto

Pre-light: maybe one vein but other than that wonderful construction. Dark brown color, nice earthy smell. Nicly hydrated I could hear it as I rolled it in my fingers. It was not too soft but, just right.

Post-light table: cut and lit wonderfully. Good even burn and good amount of smoke and by that I mean the right amount. The draw was very nice. Chocolate tones right off the bat, followed by ceder/wood. It transitioned to a earthy/leather tone half way through with the chocolate tone taking more of a back seat but sticking it's head up every so often. I really loved how the tones blended in.

I can't think of anything I did not love about this smoke. This really put a great end to my day. I am already thinking of what to pair with it. I think Alec knocked it out the park on this one. It needed no touch ups, and burned evenly the entire way. I did not want to put it down. I will be looking for these when I go cigar shopping. 50/50.

Glad you enjoyed it so much. The rep told us that they had completely sold out their first run of these at the show, so I guess a lot of other people liked what they tasted too.
