Blackbird Crow Gran Toro Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Sunday 06 October, 2024 by Sam

Got the sampler and tried this one first a few days ago. Im new to cigars, so am enjoying trying different flavor profiles. This one had a strong leather taste at the start which mellowed out a little through the rest, got a hint of almond for the first time on the retro, which was nice and with a very mild sweetness which faded in and out. For my taste the leather was a little overpowering for me but I will be buying it again.

Never heard of these before so took a punt on a sampler. Sparked this one up and initially the taste was awful. Perservered (at cigar prices now you have to!), and it smoothed out into a really solidly nice smoke. Consistent throughout without complexity or building of flavours - just good honest smooth tobacco flavour. Good/easy draw, lots of smoke, smoked to the nub. As a fine cigar, probably not going to challenge the best of the cubans, but quality and profile of the smoke was consistent across all of them so when I want a 'smoke', rather than an exercise in taste testing, I'll order again.
