Don Lino Africa,very solid,oily brindled colorado wrapper,heavy and well made. The taste pre-light is of spicy,mature tobacco with a hint of sweetness,aromas of deep,mature tobacco,and light earthy notes.
The first half produces big,rich and spicy tastes ,rich tobacco and leathery notes,aromas of spicy herbs,almost a sandlewood essence.Very exotic and tasty.The second half has a bit more intensity,oak leaf and leather,smooth on the palate,a lingering finish.The flavor profile is interesting,well balanced,very flavorful.
There is a nice balance between flavor and strength,this smoke stays pleasant and has a very even burn,rich flavors, but never too strong or intrusive. I am impressed that this 7.25 inch cigar stayed good to the last couple of inches.I rate it 6.5 strength and 17 of 20 overall....

I really liked these when I tried them, I think that was a year ago or so. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the review.

You won't be disappointed.

The robusto, lancero, torpedo and saloman are all similar yet have wonderful, perfect distinct nuances that make them just unique enough to set themselves apart.
