Default Joya De Nicaragua Celebracion Torpedo

A beautiful cigar that says it's a Puro on the band. Nice sharp point on this torpedo. A couple veins are noticeable, but it still looks good.



This cigar is packed very nicely. I clip a small end off the cap, so not to get any runs started. The draw is a bit tight, so I'll see if it gets any better.



This starts off with a mild creamy flavor. The draw remains tight, and not much smoke coming through. I decided to take a chance and clip off a bit more. That does the trick and the draw is now easy with lots of smoke.



The burn is fairly even. The ruff spots easily fixed themselves and no relights were needed. The second third brings about a soft vanilla flavor mixed in with the creamy smoke. I'm getting more flavor now that I have a good draw.



Winding down brings a change to a nice almond flavor. It's gets a bit stronger as it nears the end. I found this to be a mild to medium smoke with nice subtle flavors. Very relaxing cigar for a nitecap.
