Default Tatuaje Havana VI Nobles

5x50 robusto

Wrapper, binder, and filler are all Nicaraguan



Construction: construction is good, solid and well packed, dense, but has a slight spongy character to it. the wrapper is nice, with some veining but nothing that stands out as problematic

Prelight: first draw after shaving off the cap has some pepper to it, also some grassy notes

First Third: first draws after torching have a nice woody flavor along with the expected peppery spice. there is also a hint of coffee and leather

Draw: is excellent

Burn: is slow and pretty even

Ash/Smoke: ash is solid salt and pepper, smoke is plentiful

Second Third: the flavors of oak, leather, and a hint of spice

Final third: ends with a kick of pepper and coffee

Strength: medium

Flavor: medium



Overall: I love these guys and smoke them regularly. I would recommend this stick to anyone interested in some of the regular production tats
