Smoke Famous Nicaraguan 3000 ~ Torpedo
Drink(s): Yuengling Porter
Tunes: Queensryche Greatest Hits

Wrapper: Maduro
Draw: Medium throughout
Burn: Razor sharp, even with small cone throughout.
Misc: 90+ minutes Nose exhale exhibits medium burn.

Pre-light: Musky scent. Bit of chocolate smell. Prelight taste ~ nothing



Light: Medium effort to toast. Medium draw.

1st 3rd: Spicy. I sense a hint of chocolate. Slight salty flavor. Oily, lots of stuff going on here. I'd say medium body at this point. There's something else on the draw... a green, not aged flavor. Hard to describe.



Ash: Crisp white. Tiny black specks. Solid out to 1 1/2"



2nd 3rd: Chocolate, oil. Medium to full body now. Spice has mellowed, but still there. Basically the same flavor profile, but a little more mellow.



3rd 3rd: More heavy body now. Spice is gone. Oily chocolate hints. Minty green taste. It gets harsh towards the end



Overall impression: Very good for the price. I think I should let these age in the humi for a while though. Good potential. Score: Solid mid 80's
