Gifted by a friend. Location: This review was made indoors in Hotel Havanna’s cigar lounge. Information: Size: 4×46, Petit Belicoso. Wrapper: Dark roasted coffee beans, oily with a slight rough texture with small veins. Construction: Firm even feel when lightly squeezed. Cold draw: Hay, cacao and earthy sweetness. 1st third: Cacao, oakwood and earthy sweetness. 2nd third: Keeps the previous flavours with a smooth profile. Burn: Burns sharp with a firm and stable white ash. Smoke: Voluminous smoke with a cool feeling on the tongue and a light draw. 3rd third: Slight black pepper note added to the mix, otherwise it keeps steady. Duration: 16:35-17:10, 35 min. Conclusion: A full bodied cigar with a medium strength profile. Result: In my book this is an 91 point cigar. /Cigar Reviewer André   |
