$8
5.5"x54
Strength: Medium-Full
Wrapper: San Andres
Origin: Nicaragua
Shape: Robusto
Prelight: Sweet tobacco, cocoa and cedar, slight box press, solid pack
1st 1/3
Perfect draw, dark chocolate, earth, nut, and creamy, no bite, spices in the background, medium/full, lots of smoke production, burning at an angle
2nd 1/3
Very smooth and creamy, maybe a note of syrupy flavor but faint and continuing dark chocolate, earth, nut and spice notes.
Burn line self corrected, slight nicotine buzz
Some people get a mint note but I can't detect it
Overall the flavors could be bigger but it is a smooth smoke
Final 1/3
This stick can take the abuse of not going hot when hit to fast, nice trait
All the flavors seem to blend but fading together, this was the better of the La Aroma de Cuba brand I've had but not my cup of tea.
Smoke time 1 hr 10 min
Score 7.5 out of 10
