Tatuaje 7th Reserva Review
Review # 87
$9. Strength: Full 5 5/8 x 46 Country of Origin: Nicaragua Wrapper Color: Maduro Wrapper Origin: Connecticut Wrapper Leaf Type: Broadleaf Resting time: 2 months Prelight: Light cedar, musty wood, hay 1st 1/3 Great draw, tones of smoke off the draw Dusty chocolate and coffee notes with spice on the pallet, medium sweet pepper, nuttiness all creamy and smooth. Ash is a medium gray and fell off at about a inch and a half, burning very straight. 2nd 1/3 This a a fine cigar, almost seems like a meal with its meaty flavors that are now getting even more creamy smooth. I love the spicy notes and the after taste of each draw a lot, sweet, spicy, creamy, earthy all at once There's just enough pepper to balance out the other notes in a nice complementary manner. Final 1/3 The draw is still outstanding with a touch of resistance Chocolate sweetness and the creamy coffee with the nuttiness continue with a slight elevation of the spice and pepper notes but very acceptable. Overall this cigar was almost perfect, the burn and the draw are excellent to the end. Now getting a slight nicotine buzz but moderate The strength and the sweetness of the wrapper are a wonderful combination and at the top of my favorites. I'd recommend the 7th Reserva more for the seasoned cigar smoker but might be a cigar for the novice looking for something more towards full. I see myself having some of these as a go-to smoke in the near future Smoke time: 1 hour 20 min Score 9.2 out of 10
