Very smooth smoke, rushing into the forehead, roasted milk, toasted bread, heavy nectar, followed by a faint white pepper, and a faint oak. The burning smell is also very pleasant. It is as rich as Partagas E2. The middle section is the peak of the whole cigar, with toasted milk, and violent nectar, and a faint cinnamon aroma. The pepper and oak aromas gradually become obvious.

One needs to let this one rest/age a bit to allow it to blow your socks off. One can absolutely smoke it ROTT but I found this blend getting better and better with age. The Aniverario No 3 is one of my top 3 Davidoff blends. I absolutely love it. It starts off with the hearty cedar notes and spice from the Connecticut Shade wrapper. As the cigar warms up you get the beautiful honey sweetness throughout the smoke.
