Fonseca ~ Cosacos

[badwhale]

Smoke: Fonseca ~ Cosacos
Drink: Water
Tunes: Iron Maiden ~ Piece Of Mind

Wrapper: ISOM
Binder: ISOM
Filler: ISOM
Draw: Medium to tight draw.
Burn: Good
Misc: 60min

Pre-light: Colorado – claro shade wrapper. Almost has a red hue to it. Not too much prelight scent, but a little musty smelling. Leathery tobacco twang on cut taste.



Light: Easy, using a cedar splint. Medium to tight draw.

1st 3rd: Nutty and sweet tobacco. Almost a bittersweet walnut ring to it. Some oily notes mixed in. Mild to medium body with medium to full flavor. Nice balance.



Ash: White and dark gray layers. Holds on for about 1 ¼”



2nd 3rd: Again, nutty and sweet tobacco. A saltiness like salt water taffy note now. A little more rich in the tobacco flavors. Like a sweet leather. Still a mild to medium body but full flavor. Nice.



3rd 3rd: More woodsy and nutty now than the sweet tobacco. Getting a little toasty at this point and flavors are still blending really well.



Overall impression: Seems it would be a great morning smoke with coffee. Very good tonight while I was aiming for something not too heavy.

Nice review, every time I hear about a "morning smoke" I think about EdgeMan.
