BARBARINO -D-
Petite corona- very smooth dark wrapper, with some sneaky tooth peaking out.
Salty on the cold draw finishing up with earth filled tobacco.
It starts out with a full, rich and peppery profile. I Have to get ready for work in an hour so this smoke is just the right size for this session. Perfect draw and burn. I'm pairing it with Starbucks Guatemala because I gotta get my buzz on before hitting that graveyard shift. The first inch has brought an earthy richness filled with pepper out the nose. It almost reminds me of a loaded baked potato but not so potato-y...lol. Tonight's accompaniment is Blues Christmas Station because.. Tis the season!
The smoke combines a medium body with its full and robust flavors. I'm experiencing a little sweetness as I get into the center of this shtick... A little buttery too. The halfway transition is immediately noticeable. A fresh mint leaf mixes in to brighten up the profile a bit and it works extremely well! This is a really tasty short smoke.
The profile changes once again as I hit the last third. The fresh mint has fell way to wood, spice, cream mixed in is a light sweetness And a peppery retro. The smoke is still a bit buttery. I'm gonna say La Palina kill bill?
Thanks for the smoke brother! It hit the spot. Top of the line short smoke.
