Wrapper: Ecuadorian Sumatra
Filler: Cuban-seed Nicaraguan and Honduran long leaf fillers
Price: $5.00
Two thing drew me towards this particular cigar. The first thing that drew me in was the band. The band is vintage looking with a lighthouse represented on it. The second thing, the size. I am a huge fan of belicoso cigars.
Before I lit up this stick, I gave it a quick look over. The wrapper smelled pretty good, not excellent. There were no veins in the leaf that would have any effect in the burn pattern. And the wrapper has a flavor that was strikingly similar to oak.
The cigar was slightly spicy and peppery right as it was lit. After a few puffs, there were subtle hints of coffee coming through as well. The combination of coffee and pepper were quite unique. Neither flavor was strong enough to say that it was a prominent flavor.
