Growing too fast.
This is a beautifully constructed pigtailed lancero with Colorado shade wrapper that is smooth with veins running the length. There’s only a slight bit of oiliness to it and a very nice weight in the hand. I punch the pigtail cap; find the draw with a good resistance, and a musty aged tobacco flavor coming through.
Beginning 1/3
I put fire to the foot and take a couple puffs to get the fire burning evenly, and then take a slow, long draw. There’s a perfect pepper spice on the back of the throat and a delicious nuttiness with chocolate flavor coming through. I can also detect the slight bit of mustiness as well. It has a delicious long finish and all I can think of is creamy chocolate.
Middle 1/3
The burn is sharp through to the midway point with a strong whitish gray ash forming. I continue to get chocolate notes with a nice nuttiness coming through in the medium bodied smoke. There also seems to be a bit of orange zest as well. The finish is superb, long and lasting on the palate. The spice is spot on.
Final 1/3
Heading into the final third, the flavor is a straightforward rich tobacco with undertones of nuts and cocoa. The burn continues to be sharp with a strong whitish gray ash forming. The smoke itself remains a medium body with a perfect amount of spice. There is an incredible lasting finish. Uh, well, I wasn’t paying close enough attention it seems. I seemed to start detecting a slight bitter, funky flavor and then it happens. A nice big glove of tar on the tongue. Oh yeah, THAT was nasty. Whew! After rinsing a bit with the water I had handy, I figured I could go ahead and finish, just be careful not to touch the tip. BAM!! I did it again! Okay, well enough is enough. I hated to put it down as it was so good, however the tar did me in. I will say that I didn’t realize it until I stepped inside that my head was quite woozy. An oh so good woozy though.
This was a fantastic smoke. It had a perfect spice, perfect body, with delicious flavors of chocolate, nuts, and a nice orange zest. The burn was perfect as well with a strong ash and a long finish, all matching my palate perfectly, excellent cigar. I just hope there’s more available and affordable once I find out what it is! I have a feeling though….
