I enjoyed a double wrapped robusto today from Don Francisco ,a nicely bunched firm stick,full of caramel and well aged tobacco aromas,with a dry mature tobacco taste in the pre light.
The cigar has a nice natural and maduro wrapper,the first half is rich with caramel and sweet tobacco flavors,a creamy mouth feel and a very clean finish.There are light leather notes,a touch of that wonderful mustyness that you find in very mature well cured tobaccos.The smoke is very tasty and velvety rich.
The second half picks up a bit in intensity,solid flavors,a lingering finish,lots of caramel and leathery notes,sweet tobacco, very nice aromas,the burn was even and the ash a bit crumbly,but it held on well.
This is a delightful smoke,perfect for a morning smoke or with a brown ale or a light spirit.I rate it 5 of 10 strength,18 of 20 overall....Thanks Don Francisco!!
