A cigar that reflects its heritage. Posted today in the DB: A lovely oily col/claro finely veined wrapper surrounds a lt- med density bunch with no flaws, hard spots or lumps. Very well made. Silky and supple feel. Near perfect draw delived volumes of thick heavy smoke. Light almost white ash was firm. This example was a full bodied and full strength powerhouse with above average complexity. Plenty of nose spice with deep rich tobacco with burnt molasses and cashew notes. Med finish was toasty and semi sweet. Smoke was never harsh but smooth and balanced despite its fullness. I nubbed this great cigar. Highly recommended.
