Gran Habano Vintage 2002 Robusto

[kaelaria]

This 5×50 dark brown oily wrapped cigar features minimal veins, a slick firm pack, invisible tight seams and a rich tobacco aroma. As I toast this up I talk a little about what ‘vintage tobacco’ means. First light reveals a very mild airy smoke with an earthy flavor and woody aftertaste with a great draw. The first third quickly develops to a mild-medium creamy smooth woody taste on the draw with a slightly bitter but oily wood finish. The 1/2 way point comes fairly quickly 25 minutes in, only adding a slight sweetness to the draw flavors. Ending at 45 minutes, the last third shifts just slightly, bringling a touch of licorice to what was just a general sweetness.

Thanks for the great review.

Woo-hoo! Thanks for the call-out Bryan

I'm glad you seemed to enjoy it, although pointed out something that I very much agree with - not exactly oodles of flavour or body.

But I thought these were pleasant enough.

And at $2 or less per stick, they're a nice "fill up the humi" smoke.

Thanks for sharing. $2 a stick? I would not think it would be good.

For the price these were decent. Certainly nothing to write home about but sokid value nonetheless.
