Xolotal Mungin is on a distinguished road
Default Room 101 Daruma Mutante (lancero)

Country of Origin: Honduras
Factory: Tabacos Rancho Jamastran
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano
Binder: Brazil Mata Fina
Filler: Dominican Republic & Honduras
Size: 7 Inches
Ring Gauge: 38
Vitola: Lancero

Was quite impressed with this. I've been smoking stronger cigars in the morning these days and was happy not to be hit with any overbearing spice or bitterness. Visually, the wrapper is a beautiful chocolate brown and the ring quite elegant. Overall, it was on the lighter side of medium. The burn was great, apart from some flakiness at the very beginning. Most noticeably I tasted leather, lesser amounts of espresso, cocoa and nuts. The leather was not overbearing at all.

Yeah, definitely worth a shot. I know my "reviews" aren't the: "The first third had overtones of toasted hazelnuts and a delicate touch of candied Meyer lemon peel," but I do my best! I do enjoy every minute smoking the things, though!

There's nothing wrong with your review. Reviews can be an in-depth dissection or a broad overview or anywhere in between. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
