Juan Lopez Selección No. 2 (FYARW)*

[karp]

Tried a six-pack of this cigar from a 24:24 a while ago… It’s a 2020 but I can’t remember the exact box code.

What can I say about this cigar? It’s pretty good: flavours of toasted tobacco, mild chocolate, orange peel, and maybe a little cinnamon. Reminds me of a chocolate-covered candied orange peel. Does not change much, the flavours are consistent but not much development during the smoke.

The construction was excellent though. Firm, well made - just look at the ash in the photo below! I don’t usually like to leave ash long on my cigar, it does nothing for me except maybe soil my pants when the ash invariable falls off. This one kept going and going because the cigar was so well made.

It’s a nice cigar, but I give it a 3/5 since the combination of orange and spice just doesn’t resonate with me. 

Cheers!
