Tatuaje La Casita Criolla Corona (picture heavy)

I acquired this new offering from Tatuaje recently and was very much looking forward to smoking it. It was very well constructed with few visible veins in the wrapper. The stick was rather firm with no soft spots and the cap cut cleanly with no cracking in the wrapper. Pre-light draw was clean, not too tight and not too easy to pull through. Nice leathery flavor to the cap.

1st third
I charred it up and it started out with a nice amount of pepper and some smooth leathery tobacco flavors. Not as much pepper as some of the other Tats that I've had. The pepper flavor slowly went away as the first inch burned away and the cigar became very smooth with the leathery tobacco flavors remaining. Throughout the first third the burn was consistent and straight and cigar produced a nice, thick smoke.
