Tunes: None
Date Smoked: 4/25/13
Wrapper: Ecuador
Binder: Dominican
Filler: Dominican / Nicaragua / Peru
Draw: Light
Burn: great
Misc: n/a
Pre-light: Maduro shade wrapper. Perfect construction, leathery smell, understated band. Faint leathery taste on cut prelight flavor.
Light: Easy draw with a match light. Medium to light draw.
1st 3rd: Oily off the draw. Bitter, but not overwhelming, and a subtl spice. Walnut skin bitter, but very creamy and smooth. Interesting. Bitter backs off into a mellow sweet tobacco. About ¾” in, very nice.
Ash: Weak. Only holds on for about ¾” Light gray and flakey.
2nd 3rd: Smooth, sweet, woodsy…great blend. Some spicey but has really mellowed out. Still, it leaves a medium full body cigar which is quite flavorful.
3rd 3rd: Mellow, but gaining in a little tooth. Walnut skin bitter is stronger and heavy on the woodsy. Very different. Some leather notes an well balanced…nice!
Overall impression: Really nice!
Thanks Paddy for including this on a trade!
