San Cristobal FIN FEB 05 (SSTRW)

[Cigar_83]

Hi gents,

 

This is my first official review and although I wouldn't say I have an experienced pallet I'll give it a go.

 

Cigar - San Cristobal - La Fuerza.

 

First 3rd - I instantly got a sweet taste which reminded me of brown sugar. It was very pleasant and paired rather nicely with my espresso.

 

Second 3rd - I got a little spice note, slight tingle on the lips which faded rather quickly. It then transitioned into a sweet cream flavour which I thoroughly enjoyed. Im a sweets kinda person so I'm not sure if that tends to dominate my pallet. I found sipping the espresso would 'reset' my pallet.

 

Final 3rd - throughout the cigar I had no issue with draw/pull it really was effortless. I found a little of the spice was begging to return as the tingle lip feeling was evident although slightly.

Near the stub it transitioned to bitterness I couldn't quite grasp what exactly but almost like a licorice. At this point it was the end, overall duration appox 50minutes took my time with this.

 

Rating out of 100

- construction 75

- flavour profile 80

- flavour transitions 83

- pull/ draw 80

Overall a solid 85

 

Really enjoyed this one and will gravitate to it again.

 

Cheers.

Hi, it's a La Fuerza!! I should have included that in the main post. Thanks for asking.
