Humidor Mav's Favourite

Construction very good no raised veins, no blemishes on wrapper and no soft spots. Draw is slightly loose. Full bodied Taste strength: Full, Tobacco strength: Solid medium. Smoke Duration: 80 mins Ash is crumbly and need touch up after each ash fall to keep straight burn. This cigar shines in tobacco quality and taste. Very creamy and smooth till the nub. First third noted cream,mild earthy, coffee, soft cedar, butter crackers, cardamom, pepper, floral , hazelnut and vanilla. The taste notes were changing constantly. Second third had cedar, earthy, cream, caramel, malt, fruity (berries, raisin and cherry), nutmeg and cinnamon. Last third: hickory, earthy, leather, chocolate, pepper, raisin, cream, hazelnut and molasses. Fruity notes in second starts with berries then changes to raisin, and then to cherry and going back to raisin.

I will save the description as it has been noted by 2 reviews here by @Wolfgang07 and @Jo. The construction is top. Well aged tobacco. The creaminess definitely gets full points. Razor sharp burn. Very smooth and relaxing with enough complex aromas. The taste of chocolate and coffee is very crisp. I Recommend trying this cigar. Gladly again.

Box worthy Cigar, Starts Out floral,light Earthy, nutmeg, cedar, Coffee, dark chocolate, pepper and Brown sugar in the first third dark chocolate is turned to Milk chocolate after 15-17 mins, the second third has equal amount of Vanilla and Almond with Addition of malts and more cream, Last third continues with more Almond Notes and addition of leather. Overall very smooth and creamy, lasts for about 90mins, burn and Draw very good.
