Ramon Allones Estupendos TEB OCT07 (RARW)

[Colt45]

Construction: Solid but light in hand - no noticeable anomalies.

Wrapper: Matte colorado - see pics for veins, etc.

Pre-light Aroma / Draw / Taste: Aroma of barnyard and raisin. Good draw with little flavor.

Draw / Burn / Smoke Volume: Good draw, razor burn, adequate smoke volume.

Taste: Initial draws are of sweet tobacco / raisin with a deep tobacco backbone. An inch or so in, some green notes emerge, a tinge of sweetness, meaty tobacco, medium body. Texture is dry-ish, but not overly woody.

Smoke is not dense, but is rather viscous / mouth coating. Overall impression of slightly sweet, rich tobacco with a slight herbal tinge. Nearing midpoint, the overall sense of rich tobacco and dry smoke remains, interspersed with some of the initial raisin notes. I keep coming back to the term meaty.

Continuing on, begins to show more layers of flavor - the rich tobacco, bit of raisin, hint of walnut. Rich in overall flavor, but remains medium in body. Nothing overt, all in balance. Moves forward much the same, with little in the way of evolution. Body becomes fuller, but retains a sense of finesse.

Finishes up with little change. Never harsh, never bitter. Nothing outrageous, superbly solid. Very nice cigar.
