Perla Del Mar Corojo - Toro Cigar - 1 Single
by Jonathan
My first from this range and thoroughly enjoyed it. Quite earthy with a hint of hay, and quite peppery as the smoke went on. Great draw and burn. Must have got over an hour and a half out of this with only a couple of touch ups needed along the way where it soon corrected itself. Would definitely buy again.

This was a hefty cigar with plumes of deep rich smoke. Taste changed throughout with first and last thirds the best. Strong dark chocolate and espresso notes with a hint of sweetness. Middle third not so good. Powerful Cuban and I think I prefer regular Partagas personally

Perfect construction with great draw. Lots of mild to medium smoke with hay/wood notes but not overly dry. Built on flavours towards the end which I smoked literally till I burnt my fingers.

I love this cigar. The example I have just smoked had a beautiful oily dark wrapper. Draw was fairly firm but it was worth working a tiny bit for the delicious plentiful easy going smoke. Medium bodied, maybe even lighter. Perfect 30 mins and under half the price of a siglo 2!!!!!
Highly recommend

Had this In the humidor a couple of months. Thought I'd light it up tonight and so glad I did. Perfect burn, perfect draw, very mild with lots of sweetness. Overall a very enjoyable light smoke and I'll definitely have a few more for the humidor and hope they are all as good as this one!
Maybe I'll try the robusto as you'll be well over an hour with this one and If your torn between the 10th anniversary and this I'd recommend the 20th anniversary personally I found it far superior in taste.

Currently smoking this cigar, I was supprised it didn't come in a cellophane like the rest.
Pros:
Taste is a 4/5, with the white pepper on retro hail, not too sure if I can taste the cedar, the almonds is very subtle and the coffee bean not so much. It a creamy cigar for its size. The cigar does smell of a warm leathery note aroma which is not strong, but very nice smell.
Cons:
Kept going off and the burn is not even but you can touch it up and rotate the cigar for it to even out. The construction is not bad, despite an ever so slight crack on wrapper (nothing major).
This cigar has a lot of potential to be a 4.5 stars, for enjoyment if I could give it a 3.5, however, the rating will allow me only a 3 stars. I am sure if I buy again I wouldn't have the issues with relighting it.
Despite the rating, I would still recommend it.
