asmith Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Sancho Panza Corona Gigante DTF May 03 Churchill Smell at cold: Beautiful soft mushrooms and white pepper nose. Colour: Light tan colour, with a hint of oil shining on the wrapper Cut & Draw: Smooth coca with an easy draw well constructed. Flavours 1/3 Soft velvety smoke with delicate orange and sweet chocolate flavours, a milder cigar which fits in with the Sancho Panza range 2/3 Intensity is building up with a back palate of cinnamon and a dry peat bog flavour. The smoke is almost buttery smooth with a streak of almond flavour. 3/3 Moving into the final third the intensity easing off again and settles into a milder cigar. Still notes of citrus and peat throughout. Final Comment Solid cigar with a couple of years on it. A good burn time for an afternoon smoke when the PRez is at a meeting :-) Drink Matched nicely with an NZ Sauvignon Blanc and an open fire.

Colt45 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Andrew, thanks for the review! My first two tries with this one were on the bitter side. I won't try another until spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
