### Cigar Review
Presentation and Construction
This cigar impresses right from the start with its stylish design and attractive wrapper. The band is tastefully done, adding a touch of elegance to the overall appearance. The wrapper is smooth, with a slight sheen, and the cigar feels firm and well-constructed. It?s clear that care was taken in its craftsmanship, as there are no noticeable soft spots, and the seams are tight and nearly invisible.
First Third: Light Cedar and Aromatic Spice
Upon lighting, the cigar reveals a rich and smooth flavor profile that is immediately engaging. The initial draw offers light notes of cedar, complemented by a subtle aromatic spice that lingers on the palate. The flavor is reminiscent of an old-school Cuban cigar, perhaps something akin to a Trinidad, with a delicate sweetness that adds to its charm. The draw is decent, with just the right amount of resistance, allowing for a steady and consistent burn. The smoke is mellow, yet full-bodied enough to be satisfying.
Second Third: Growing Complexity

Decent flavour and smoke time but not the nicest smoke experience

First cigar I've ever had. Never been a smoker. This is a smooth cigar from my point of view. No problems at all! Great taste, nice relaxing smoke and I still have a quater as I'm writing this! (Been about 45 mins)
Thoroughly enjoyable

I really like the corojo leaf flavour so was keen to give this cigar a try. Very well constructed with no burn issues or need to relight. Definitely a strong cigar and packs a punch for a relatively small stick. Nice flavours with chocolatey notes on the retro hale.

Score: 5/10
Smoke time: 60 minutes
- **Flavour Profile**: Earthy with dark coffee flavors in the second third. Increased spiciness as the cigar progresses.
- **Construction and Burn**: Initially good, with an even burn in the second third. However, it required an extra light and deeper draws in the final third, indicating some construction or burn issues.
- **Smoking Experience**: Became difficult to smoke towards the end, with bitterness developing in the final third. Overall, it was an okay experience until the final part.
- **Aftereffects**: Noted a negative impact on digestion, which could have been exacerbated by pairing with red wine and cheese.

Very pleasant smoke indeed. Everyone says they taste like Cuban Cigars of old and I agree. Construction is impeccable, smoke output fantastic and flavours are great. Its a easy medium smoke I recommend they are lovely.
