Default Old Henry Maduro

Old Henry Maduro Corona 5.5 x 54, small package of goodness! This cigar is available exclusively from Holt's Cigar Co. and is made by Don Pepin Garcia. Lot of somewhat sweet, dark, earthy aromas come from this stick prior to torching. Draw proved to be ideal with a slight bit of resistance that loosened up slightly as the cigar heated up. Burn was flawless as well. Initial 1/4 inch or so on every one I've had was on the rough side. Patience payed off, as things quickly settled in and thereafter the stick was quite smooth. Full, dark, savory tobacco flavors abound with expresso and coffee flavors appearing. After the first half, the mild sweetness subsides a bit and appears in the background. Savory, almost hickory toasted wood flavors appear with the other dark flavors. This is in a good way - the flavors are honestly good! Interesting thing is that this cigar just stays lit. Put it down to do something and 5 minutes later, still going. Flavors seem to concentrate even more when it is left alone for a couple of minutes. This is a truly damn good stick at an awesome price point. Definitely worth stocking.
Holts is offering free shipping on all orders until the 13th and with these cigars at a 20 spot for a 6pack, helluva deal! I just stocked up!
Seriously recommended!
