Muestra de Saka #NLMTHA Lancero

This cigar looks like the perfect Lancero. Nice medium wrapper with a couple of veins. The foot has notes of toast. The cold draw is perfect. Tonight’s beverage is a Dragon’s Milk Stout.



The cigar starts with medium flavors of earth and oak. The retrohale is smooth with just the right amount of pepper. The burn is very even.



This is a well-crafted Lancero. The flavor profile begins medium bodied with earthy flavors and some cedar. The burn is excellent. The Dragon’s Milk Stout is a bit too sweet for this cigar, but is still a good match.



In the first third the flavor profile remains consistent with oak and cedar over a nice earthy base. The burn remains perfect. The retrohale remains very smooth with just the right amount of pepper.



During the second third the flavor profile remains consistent. Excellent blend excellent of cedar and oak over a very pleasant base of earthiness. The retrohale remains very smooth with just the right amount of pepper. The burn remains perfect.



Approaching the final inch the flavor profile remains consistent. The construction of the cigar is immaculate. Another winner from Steve Saka, whether he wanted to release it or not. 9.7/10, Joe Bob says check it out.

Come to think of it, I've never had a Saka product that I didn't like.
