Smoked this cigar about a week ago and just getting around to posting a review. The box date on this one is may07.
Size: tres petit and is 4 3/8 x 42
On to the review. Cigar had a firm fill and a good pre lite draw. Once lit the cigar started with a perfect draw filled with strong spice mixed with a earthy core(thats not quite developed). It does have a richness and is full bodied. After a couple of puffs I pick up a slight sweetness. Past the 1/4 way point the strength eases up to medium, but continues with the same profile. At the 1/2 way point it was cocoa, and a slight creamyness to the profile. The spice is in the background and soon faded. Only in the last 1/4 did the strength build back up to med/full with more spice. Overall, a good short smoke.
