Wrapper: Somoto Nicaragua

Filler: Nicaraguan
Vitola: Torpedo (6 1/8 x 52)
Big Al recently gifted me this stick. I haven’t had one since they were released and I thought it would be nice to revisit on the show. The strength and profile of this three year old cigar has definitely mellowed out. The profile was a balanced mix of coffee, earth, cedar, and graham cracker sweetness. Very enjoyable and easy to smoke. The burn was not perfect but the draw was above average. For those aging these, I would recommend you smoke them now. I do not think they will get any better at this point and they may start to age out if you do not enjoy them. Certainly worth grabbing a “Fiver”, if you happen to stumble upon some.
