Popular Post Luca Posted November 12, 2018 Popular Post Posted November 12, 2018 I forgot I had this last cigar from my EMA NOV 08 box. It was tucked away hidden in my desktop humidor. What a better excuse to smoke it for the cigar review Competition! Pre Draw: Slightly snug, but fine. I did a V-Cut for this. Slight sweetness to the pre draw. Start: Toasted tobacco at the very start, then as it progressed the PL BE started to evolve even more. Slight notes of burnt caramel and toffee. Nice! The retro hale is super smooth too and sweet. Construction was great. Ash held on for a little more than an inch. Halfway Point: The burnt caramel and toffee notes are increasing in intensity. A subtle toasted tobacco also sits on the palate. Hakushu Distillers Reserve: Thank you @Fuzz for grabbing a couple of bottles of these for the Syd Crew I paired the Hakushu with the Por Larranaga Belicosos Extra because I felt that it wouldn’t overpower the cigar in regards to the intensity of flavour it delivers. The Hakushu has a nice floral/sweet aroma after letting it air in the glass. The taste is butter, citrus like flavours. Really enjoyable with this smoke. Very refreshing whiskey too. End: The burnt caramel and toffee flavours are starting to decline now and I am getting a pleasant toasted tobacco note coming through. A touch of roasted nuts too. Overall: A great cigar that is at it's peak right now. Smoke them if you got them! Thanks for reading Luca P.S: And of course....the review would be complete without the Fez! 7 1
