A JL No.1 this afternoon when the sun finally broke through.
Had the evening to myself with the missus on a company night out and our little one tucked up with Iggle Piggle by 7pm. August's Trout and Salmon, a couple of bottles of San Miguel and a Monte Sublime...off I go...
A very pretty cigar, sits very well in the hand, liking the embossed MC crest on the band, havent noticed this before. Perfect draw after the cut, just enough resistance for a big cigar. Spicyness from the first few draws, dark wrapper helping with this. Full on tabacco flavours, difficult to pick out anything subtle in the first inch or so...
No real flavour development in the first half, was looking for it but it just stuck with the good quality, aged tabacco notes.
Into the second half and some menthol tones coming through and a little hint of sweet nougat at times. These flavours died away as the cigar picked up strength fast, cazadores strength in the last couple of inches.
Bands off and tongue beginning to take a beating. Strong, strong, strong, should have poured a wee malt to go with the last few puffs.
A very enjoyable cigar, better than last time but still feel like I missed something in the middle. Has gone up in my estimations, will revisit the box next year to see how they are coming along. Sticking with the Monte C's for now
