Quintero Panetela Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Friday 20 October, 2017 by Karl

This came in a selection of cigars from around the world some months back so has been sleeping in my humidor. I prefer a smoke of around an hour thus favour cigars around the Montecristo size but with the winter months approaching they tend to be a little too long with the last minutes being spent thinking “I’m getting cold now”. I’ve tried smaller, a Maduro but for me it was too small and reminded me of why I gave up smoking cigarettes, well one reason anyway. I found this Quintero to be ideal. It’s substantial enough in size, both length and gauge to sit in between the two. Not dissimilar in taste to a Montecristo in my view, medium strength. Clipped well and the ash formed a good solid inch before dropping. Even burn and relaxed draw. I spun this out for a good forty five minutes in the garage with a beer whilst admiring the motorbikes. This could have been shortened to thirty minutes if you so desired. Overall rating is very pleasant and one I’d be happy to stock in my humidor.
