Tatuaje Boris: 7X49 churchill
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Sumatra Rosado
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan
Strength: Full
Appearance: Typical dark brown wrapper with prominent small veins.
Construction: Very firm with no soft spots and a perfect triple cap.
Draw/Burn: A perfect draw and even burn with plenty of smoke,ash is typical.
Taste: Wood and leather notes dominate with a hint of black pepper for the first inch.Now the spice is kicking in with huge billowing clouds of smoke,a med body with full flavor. The last third is full body with spicy pepper and leather notes.
Conclusion: I have heard this cigar is a re-banded Frank,but it is slightly different size and flavor profile IMO. A very good cigar with a nice burn and draw,plenty of flavor for the serious smoker.Very limited and hard to find,if you have a chance I would recommend you take it. I didn't review the Dracula because it would not be fair because the cigars are young and wet but will be much better with some age.
