1st 1/3
Powered dark chocolate, prune-raisin, sweet maple wood, roasted nuts and white pepper spice, perfect resistances on the draw, even burn line.
I prefer the Casa Magna Colorado's much better and found it to be a milder and more flavorful then the Oscuro but both are very enjoyable.
2nd 1/3
The chocolate and maple wood come forward with a creamy cocoa finish
The white pepper zing is light on the tongue and adds dimension to the stick nicely.
Final 1/3
Woody note has a touch of cedar to it with the pepper increasing and the chocolate and roasted nuts fading completely.
Cigar stays this way the rest of the session.
Burn line was flawless and smoke output was plentiful.
The Casa Magna Colorado's are to me better with the pepper missing making it a smoother smoke.
The Casa Magna Oscuro Belicoso needs to be smoke slowly to not make it go bitter, similar to many cigars, although some sticks can take the abuse of multiple draws without getting bitter.
Smoke time: 1hr 20 min
Score 8 out of 10
