/Cigar Reviewer André
Interesting and novel release by Habanos. A beautiful cigar with 15 years of age at the time of this smoke. Unfortunately the one I lit up seemed to have been bunched too tight, causing a tight draw. But I could taste the great flavors yearning to fully release. Notes of earth, coffee, coco, and baked goods remain consistent till the nub. Retrohale is buttery smooth, with almost no spicyness. The age seems to have also muted the strength. Happy to have snagged up a box, as this is believed to be a limited one time release. 5 more years and this will be a 20 year cigar!
