Default Vengeance Maduro Ligero Toro

VITALS
Brand: Vengeance
Model: Maduro Ligero
Strength: Says Full
Origin: Honduras & Dominican
Smoke time: 1 hour


Here's what it says on FamousSmoke.com

Vengeance Maduro Ligero Maduro cigars are expertly handcrafted with a perfectly-aged blend of Dominican and Honduran-grown Cuban seed Ligero longfiller leaves rolled in a dark, oily Brazilian Maduro capa. Created for the more experienced palate, you'll enjoy a robust, full-bodied smoke riddled with notes of espresso, dried apricot, chocolate, and a sweet-spicy finish.





This cigar is an addition from Kristoff. The prelit aroma is amazing and the foot smells liek a lto of honduran cigars that i have smelled. The cigar feels well packed, well rolled, and very heavy for it's size.

The prelit draw is right in the middle (being perfect for most although i enjoy a more open draw).



Once lit the cigar exhibited a very bold flavor but was defintely not full bodied in my opinion. It was one dimensional but for those who like a very leathery taste with hints of spice like i do won't mind its 1-sided flavor.



The cigar didn't really modify flavors as it burned down but the spice didbecome more recealed maybe because the cigar itself was heating up and the spiced penetrated the tongue more.



Overall it was a good stronger smoke, plentiful amounts of smoke with virtally no burn issues.

Would i buy it again for 7.50 at a B&M.. probably.

Good smoke, I will smoke again, but i'm not Kookoo for these like cocoa puffs.

PS - would like to make an observation, Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but i attribute its very pleasant prelit arome and even some of the flavor once lit to the chateau it had. It was a very heavily scented chateau that i think penetrated the wrapper. Coudl just be in my head though.
