Very strong. It’s somewhat balanced with the sweetness of the broadleaf, but still a little heavy handed on the ligero for me.

Spicy! Not a pepper-bomb, but there’s so much spice going on here that you probably want to drink this with something palette-cleansing like sparkling water, so that every draw you get to experience it all over again. Big body, and quite strong – I give it four stars if only because I found it unrelenting in strength – I prefer something that ‘builds’, but fans of big, bold cigars? Grab these immediately.
