Default Cusano 18 Maduro Robusto

Since it was getting cold quick today, I opened up the humi and grabbed the first smallest cigar I saw. I ended up being pleasantly surprised.

The wrapper is a nice dark maduro that looks good enough to eat. The initial draw gave a good leathery flavor which continued for the first 3rd. This seemed like a nice mellow smoke to finish the day with.



The ash was a bit messy looking and fell off at will. I got plenty of smoke from a nice easy draw. The flavor soon changed to a lite coffee note. I was really relaxed while smoking this one.



The burn was fairly even through the second 3rd of the cigar. This would be a nice morning smoke, or for me a nice evening smoke.



The last 3rd brought about a lite chocolate flavor that finished this nicely. It ended up being a perfect way to end the day. A nice mellow smoke.

Thanks for the review. Is that the paired maduro? I picked up 10 of them a few months ago on a suggestion for something to try by Scott Rauber (sorry can't remember his user name, he keeps changing it hehe) and was surprised at how good they are. Shared them with my son-in-law and boyfriend of one of my other daughters and they agreed they were a very good smoke.
