Popular Post Cayman17 Posted October 28, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2018 I was looking for an excuse to try one, so here we go. I have had a box resting in my cooler since I brought it home from vacation in May of this year. The cigar was very solid with no soft spots, and each cigar in the box sports a gorgeous Colorado claro wrapper. The aroma at cold is light hay and a touch of chocolate. Upon clipping and lighting, the draw is perfect with just the right amount of resistance. The first third, especially the first inch, was dominated by a rich sweet taste that coated the mouth and was very pleasant. Cake, perhaps? The retrohale brought a prominent cinnamon spice flavor that I enjoy in any cigar. As the cigar progressed into the second third, the sweet flavor profile continued, and I detected a delicate milk chocolate taste at times. As the final third approached, the flavor became woody, and smoke began to pour out. The delicate sweet flavors ceased and the pleasant wood flavor continued until I put the cigar down. Total smoking time was one hour and forty-five minutes. A few minor touch-ups were performed but were probably not necessary. The ash was solid and fell off cleanly in large chunks when tapped lightly on the ashtray. Overall, I was satisfied with the taste and construction of this reserva. I will definitely pick up some regular production Sir Winstons if the opportunity presents itself. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only Sir Winston I’ve ever smoked. Here is a better pic of the wrappers. The pictures I took today were in low light. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haaltert Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hi Cayman, Nice looking box and glad you finally smoked one and you liked it. Can I just ask you 1 thing, I can't find the label with the serial number on your pic, should'nt this be in the right bottom corner? Not trying to doubt anything at all, just curiousVerzonden vanaf mijn iPad met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
