Dear Diary,
Size: 5½ x 54
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut
Binder: Nicaraguan Corojo
Filler: 2/3 Nicaraguan Corojo
1/3 Nicaraguan Criollo
I smoked this on my day off. 80° and sunny at 12pm w/coffee.
Pre Light - This cigar has a very thin yellowish green wrapper. Slight veins and smelled like hay. I gave it a nice angle cut.
It started off with a light grey ash with some dark patches. Spicy with lots of smoke.
After the first 1/4 it smoothes out and gets a little milder. It has an even burn with a thin carbon ring. A slight metallic finish, great flavor. This is a really nice looking cigar. It made me feel like I was holding a small Monte 2.
1/2 way down and still holding a firm ash and even burn. The cigar is creamier and even smoother. Lots of smoke and the burning cigar smells great in the air. Not too mild at all. Just enough to call it mild-medium
body.
Last 1/2 was pretty much the same. A little stronger finish. Same burn. No buildup near the cut. Exhaling through the nose brings out some great flavor. This is a great afterlunch cigar. I recommend for a newer smoker too.
Regards,
Shibumicigar
