Robusto
5 1/4 x 50
Wrapper: Connecticut
Binder: Connecticut
Filler: Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Honduras
Prelight:
very nice construction. Dark leathery wrapper with a peppery leather taste to it. I used a 7mm punch on this smoke and the draw was a near perfect draw, bathing my mouth with a rich leathery pepper taste.
Lighting this smoke was easy even while on the road, the burn a bit uneven but managed to keep up with itself leaving behind a nice grayish white ash. The smoke a medium strength smoke, with a very predominant taste of leather and pepper, though I did have a hint of something sweet on several occasions.
Overall a very nice cigar the only drawback being that it was truly one dimensional. I had expected way better from the trio filler used. This would be a nice cigar for someone just starting out and not needing the true complexities of a mild to medium smoke.
