Size - 4 3/4 x 42
Shape - Petit Corona
Wrapper - Nicaragua
Filler - Nicaragua
Binder - Nicaragua

This little guy sports a beautiful, smooth, oily wrapper. Very firm to the touch. Rich tobacco aroma when removing from the cello sleeve. Good draw with tons of chocolate flavor pre-light.

First third - Initial draw slightly dry and woody. Very spicy nose exhale. Drawing very well with an even burn. Long aftertaste of tobacco. Consistent in flavors of cedar, leather, and tobacco throughout this third.

Second third - Getting an occasional slight bitterness on the aftertaste. Flavors still staying consistent with an increase in the fullness of the smoke. Any bitterness subsides and I'm left with a long sweet mocha finish.

Last third - Still staying consistent in flavor. The peppery spice in the aftertaste really picks up. Strong flavor packed finish.

A good short smoke. Full of a consistent flavor. I enjoyed it!

Looks like a great smoke. I haven't seen any of these in my local B&Ms. I'll keep looking because it's a smoke I've been meaning to try.

Nice review. :-)

Thanks for the review and great photos. I can't find these locally either, gonna have to get them online. I've been waiting to hear good things outside of Cigar Aficionado. I guess it's time to give Casa Magna a shot.
Thanks again!! :-)
