The Carnivorous Review
What the hell does that mean? Just the meat
pretty much the flavor and the burn. Lets get to it.
Maker: Don Pepin Garcia
Brand: Vegas Cubana
Size: Invictos (5 X 50)
Strength: Medium-Full
The Vegas Cubana starts out with a well-balanced blend of cedar, sugar, very mild pepper, tobacco, fresh black walnuts, and a touch of fruity undertones. As the cigar progresses the sugar and the walnuts both get all good and toasty. And I detect some very light notes of nougat. After the first half, the cigar opens up in strength. And when I say open, one minute youre puffing on a nice medium-bodied stick and the next its where the hell did this buzz come from? In the final third, I notice some nice leathery tones joined the bunch along with some coffee. I ended up smoking the thing till I damn near burned my fingers. : ) The burn was self-correcting, the draw was perfect throughout, and the ash held up pretty firm for a lil over two inches. This cigar that somehow slipped under my radar has turned out to be a pretty nice DPG. The flavors are not as intense as most DPGs, but I found myself welcoming the mellowness of the stick.
