2007 La Aurora 1495 No.3
Another compliments of @Ljutic
Wrapper Color: Mottled Dark Brown Colorado Maduro Wrapper Type: Ecuadorian Filler: Dominican, Nicaraguan, Peruvian Binder: Dominican Country of Origin: Dominican Republic Cigar Humidimeter Reading: 61% Environment: Temperature: 77 degrees F Outdoor RH: 32% Note: filler, binder and wrapper info is from Cigar Scanner and information from a 2010 review online, so may not be completely accurate, as I am unable to find the No.3 vitola mentioned anywhere in an extensive Google search, and recent production seems to be a slightly different blend using some Brazilian leaf. Outside smoking environment: 80 degrees and 32% humidity. Cigar Humidimeter reading:61% A 5.5x40 Corona with a fine, smooth, but veiny, mottled dark brown, Colorado maduro, Ecuadorian wrapper, smooth, very small cap, and a firm bunch. Constructed of Dominican, Nicaraguan and Peruvian filler, and Dominican binder, and made in the Dominican Republic. Even burn, flat coal, mottled grey typical ash, and a perfect draw. It did peel badly at the head immediately after being cut, even using the method of laying the cutter on a flat surface and inserting the head and cutting, but some glue fixed it fine and no further issues of any kind. Excellent smoke volume and a strong, fragrant aroma Of ample richness, smooth, mellow, mild-medium strength, generous body and perfectly balanced flavor of woodiness and floral tastes, and a generous finish of the same. No sweetness, bitterness, burn on the tongue, sharpness or saltiness Outstanding character and an overall outstanding cigar, with a final score of 96 out of 100. The highest score I have given to date and it was well earned. Sent from my SM-T820 using Tapatalk Last edited by smbauerllc; 07-11-2022 at 07:49 AM. |
