Default Mi Barrio El Billetero

This is a 95 rating for me.

Draw is very easy, and I would say on the borderline of too easy. However, does not burn hot. Make sure you just do a small cut, ideally w/ a notch cutter.

The flavor is the real highlight. Very classic Cuban characteristics. Black pepper, cedar, full tobacco. Smooths out as it burns past the first 1/3.

Construction is very solid and tight, despite the easy draw.

Highly recommend if you can find them.

You might kindly tell him ,that while not rare, these would be a tough stock for a go to stick. Very good blend.

What size is this Mi Barrio? The toro is my favorite.
