The Blaze Report
Appearance:
The cigar had a light sheen and a strong pre-light aroma with earthy sweet tones. A rich looking, brown wrapper which was firm to the touch.
1st Third:
There was richness to the feel and a spicy taste up front and a rich earthy backbone. Creamy texture with a smooth unique flavor of pepper through the nose.
2nd Third:
Full and well balance flavor were present from the aroma, and to the finish. Very luring, rich and clean aroma with sweet cocoa notes. The draw produced thick clouds of smoke with barely any effort and the burn was extremely even.
Final Third:
The flavor continued to develop and the aroma became full as the cigar burned. There was mouthwatering creamy texture with some spices that linger on the finish. A nice amount of spicy notes especially through the nose. Consistent sweet undertones on the palate with some woody notes that developed as well.
Making the Grade
Final Thoughts:
Some underlying sweet notes with an ever present spice continued to develop with an earthy edge. There was a very bold and rich aroma with robust full flavor. An outstanding unique and flavorful cigar that could easily be smoked beyond a nub and not overload your palate.
