This cigar had just come into the shop when I grabbed one. About ten minutes before actually, and it was fresh.
Anyway, this barber pole looking cigar was one to finally try. It had a very complex smell. Sweet and earthy was the smell I got from this stick. The construction was fantastic though. It was... amazing. No cigar have I seen with such a great wrap on it. The wrap on this cigar was a Connecticut shade and Maduro wrapped in a way that makes it look striped, or like a barber pole. The filler and binder are Dominican.
The first draw on this was great, and it stayed that way throughout. I got an earthy flavor mixed with a mild hint of nuttiness. The finish was creamy, which mixed with the nutty created a nice balance to the smoke. The creamy flavor in the draw itself leaves you with a hint of sweet. So, sweet, earthy, and nutty in the draw. Little nutty and very creamy in the finish. This complex smoke will leave you finding new flavors and new enjoyment with every puff. A good draw in this smoke is also great as to not keep you from the wonderful flavor.
A Churchill sized stick will run you $11 plus tax which makes this a great buy.
Final Grade: A+
