Cigar: El Triunfador Lancero (7.5 x 38)

Cost: I can't remember. I bought the box last month.

Drink: Coca-Cola (the best cola)

Appearance: This has a dark and toothy Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper on it. There were a couple veins showing. I really like the simple look of the cigar. The appearance gets a 10/10 .

Taste of the cigar: The first half was tastes of cocoa and some woodsy flavors. The second half is what I really enjoyed. I picked up cocoa, chocolate, nutty flavors, and a little bit of vanilla. There were also a couple spots where it reminded me of a Habana.

Construction: Held an average ash for a lancero. The draw was just a touch on the tight side, but I didn't mind at all. The cigar required only a few small touchups.

Strength: This was a medium bodied cigar.

Summary: This cigar was very, very good. Pete Johnson/Don Pepin Garcia have another winner on their hands. I am glad I picked up a box. I give it a 9/10.
