El Presidente Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Punch Sabrosos are a Punch Piramide and one of the PCC Regional Releases for 2011. I must say the boxes are gorgeous I will do a progressive review as I smoke this one.
El Presidente Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Slight sweet barnyard aroma. Perfect construction perfect draw. Mushroom on the draw at cold Takes to flame readily initially Medium + on the palate...full through the nose. I will let this one now settle into stride.
El Presidente Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Started with wet forest floor characters. Woody but rich. Evolving quickly with some real finesse. Cream, Mushroom, quality toasted tobacco.
El Presidente Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Very enjoyable. Body above medium with a lovely thick mouth feel. The cigar has some real depth of flavour although it is hard to describe.....savoury roast elements with a touch of cream. So far....so bloody good.
OZCUBAN Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Sounds like they taste as good as they look ,I love the punch marque ,even though some of the best are gone now . three good EL's this year whats the world coming to
El Presidente Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Coming to an end. Increased woodiness last third with sweet overlayings. The aroma as commented on by Smithy is intoxicating. Where does it sit in the Punch Pantheon? (Good comment Tom). To me it is a mix of the Punch Petit Corona del Punch and the Punch Petit Punch ....just in a Piramide Format. It has the richness, some woodiness, some spice, cream and a depth of flavour that I can only reconcile to those formats. Enjoyable now...certainly. However it has 5 -10 years+ of legs as a cigar to age. I would certainly give it 12 months to revisit...perhaps not. I will put together some 5 packs for you to try. Smoke one, let me know your thoughts and put the rest aside. Punch Sabrosos MLO July 11 Box 365 of 2400 60,000 cigars total production.
