Garbandz will become famous soon enough
Wink Don Lino Africa 7.25 x 50

Don Lino Africa,very solid,oily brindled colorado wrapper,heavy and well made. The taste pre-light is of spicy,mature tobacco with a hint of sweetness,aromas of deep,mature tobacco,and light earthy notes.
The first half produces big,rich and spicy tastes ,rich tobacco and leathery notes,aromas of spicy herbs,almost a sandlewood essence.Very exotic and tasty.The second half has a bit more intensity,oak leaf and leather,smooth on the palate,a lingering finish.The flavor profile is interesting,well balanced,very flavorful.
There is a nice balance between flavor and strength,this smoke stays pleasant and has a very even burn,rich flavors, but never too strong or intrusive. I am impressed that this 7.25 inch cigar stayed good to the last couple of inches.I rate it 6.5 strength and 17 of 20 overall....
