Habano Claro- Cuban Crafters
From Cuban Crafters,this is a nice torpedo vitola,smooth and oily medium brown wrapper,well bunched and firm,medium draw.The aromas are of well matured tobaccos,slightly sweet and fragrant.
The first half has very fragrant aromas of fine,well matured tobaccos,gentle aromatic cedar and sweet herbs,medium body,pleasant and tasty.The burn is self correcting,the finish is clean,slightly nutty and pleasant. The second half is a bit more flavorful,building nicely,there are notes of caramel and cocoa,light hints of fine leather,still medium bodied and agreeable.The burn is very even all the way to the nub,I really am sorry to get to the end of this one. Excellent construction and a very enjoyable smoke,slightly less than medium strength,but full of flavor and complex enough to keep your interest without being intrusive.This would be a good smoke with lighter spirits,hoppy ales or pilsener beers.I would recommend this for a morning smoke,a pleasant start to the day. I rate this one 4.5 of 10 strength,17 of 20 overall... |
