Default Reserva Miraflor from Guillen Canada Pass

Hi All, first review, don't be to hard on me

Reserva Miraflor (Guillen Canada Pass)
Size, the smallest they make (I guess, could not find the size...)
Drinking water

Found it to be medium density cigar with a very nice aroma, I would say mostly hay and a bit of barn smell.

First third
Even burn
Started strong, lot of peper and nutty finish
Ash is dark gray with a yellowish color, ash holds up about 1 inches.

Second third
Even burn
Pepper still there big time and I start to get a woody and some citrus taste. I just realize that the smoke I exhale is greenish (first time I see that)
Last third
Burn is uneven and then correct itself without touch up
Pepper is still very strong. Citrus taste is gone probably due to the very strong taste I get from, I would say wood, leather and cedar (no sure which on overdo the others) and also maybe a bit of coffee.

What impresses me is the fact that when you pull a draw its very peppery, smooth while exhaling and then the pepper taste kicks back very strong. I got this trough the entire cigar.

Finally, great quick smoke 45 min (Perfect between rain showers, very inclement weather since Saturday over here).
If you like cigars that sting you tongue and lips try this one you will be satisfied.

Will I buy this cigar again yes, great cigar Andy.

Sorry everybody for the lack of words, as many of you know I am French so…. Now I will look at the rain falling down and hope that on Canada day tomorrow I will be able to try something else.
Thank you for reading

Frenchie
