papichulo will become famous soon enough
Default Diamond Crown Maximus Julius Ceasar Cigar

My good friend Alex aka Green Lantern and I were hanging at his B&M. He honored me by giving me on of these great cigars and purchased an Argentinian wine call Puro Uno, which is a blend of malbec, shiraz and tempranillo grapes. At 14.5% it is an incredibly smooth and tasty wine. Lots of black cherry and vanilla. Back to the cigar it appeared to be a 52 x 7 give or take, with a great prelight aroma of an aged Opus. The first quarter inch was blah and then BAM!! A rich floral marriage of cherries, almonds with a peppery finish that was a result of the Ecuadorian sun grown wrapper. A quarter into my indulgence the cigar wen BLAH. What just happened to me???? I forged through the second quarter of the cigar with nothing significant to report. Once I entered the third quarter I found myself in a smokey disco... The volume of both smoke and flavor turned up!! It continued down to the last inch and the cigar turned south again. Overall a great cigar with an incredible wine!!! Thanks Alex!! As for the cigar itself with time this cigar will be highly prized. Once I get a hold of these I will let them rest for a year or two.
