rate 93

This cigar has a wonderful set of unique flavors, and really is, in a league of its own. The first puff just hits you with a salty spicy aroma, reminiscing of raw licorice, it’s soo good it’s addictive. It’s similar to the Montecristo flavor profile, but with a rich creamy nuance. This might be the ultimate poker cigar.

There is almond on the draw, licorice on the tongue, sweet cedar in the scent and oak in the aftertaste with a hint of coffee and toast in moderations. This is a lovely light-medium bodied cigar on the spicy flavor spectrum. I rate it 93 from a box dated 02/2008.

More and more Vegas cigars are undergoing my inspection and is slowly becoming a regular item in my humidor. When reaching for an easy premium cigar, the choice is often the Famosos or the larger Double Corona - Don Aleandro…

What a lovely creamy start with a waterfall of nutty notes in this 6 year old cigar. It’s like smoking a bottle of Baileys Irish Cream. Open an aged white wine, find a comfortable chair and let this fine cigar ease your worries for a couple of hours.

There is milk on the draw, almond on the tongue, a light coffee/chocolate in the aftertaste and a mixture of cocoa, almond and coffee in the scent. There are moments of a heavy coffee and a pinch of pepper in moderations. This is really a relaxing medium bodied smoke with a spectacular earthy flavor spectrum. I rate it 93 from a box dated 09/2004.
