Growing too fast.
The La Riqueza No. 5 has been my absolute favorite go to smoke for some time now, and was lucky enough to get a 50 cab a little while back (thanks brotha!). I’ve been trying my best to stay out of the box as I’d like to let them age a little, however it’s not been easy to leave them alone. Especially with it being freezing out and a short smoke being called for. I was packing up some smokes and dagnabbit, there sit that cab calling to me, so had to get one out to see how they’re coming.
I step outside and can see the medium brown wrapper loaded with tooth on this one, slight oils and tiny little crystals glistening in the sunlight. I punch the cap and find an absolute perfect draw with a slightly sweet taste of tobacco. I torch the foot and have it burning even in no time, smoke pouring from the forming embers.
After a couple quick puffs, I take a long draw and am greeted with a fairly strong pepper spice on the tongue and throat, the smoke itself close to being a full strength. Flavors are rich with taste of vanilla, roasted nuts, and leather all working well together, leaving a delicious, lasting finish on the palate.
I head over to the side of the house to tackle a huge wysteria bush that has gotten way overgrown, thing pretty much kicked my ass I must say, lol! After several minutes of clipping, cutting and pulling, I finally decided to give it up and finish up my cigar. Halfway in and the spice is still there, however mellowed nicely to a medium with the strength still close to full. There’s a dull, medium gray ash forming that is compact, smoke flowing well through the perfect draw.
I finished up the cigar sitting on the back porch, very relaxed, enjoying it immensely. I absolutely love La Riqueza smokes with their rich, rather thick profile that hits my palate perfectly. Sweet vanilla and a delicious twang left on the palate long after exhaling. I wouldn’t mind having nothing but these smokes in the humis.
