Default Victor Sinclair Triple Corojo Torpedo

Another stick I was gifted by Dunkel, one of his low-cost favorites.

Humidor time: 1 month in Dunkel's humi

Prelight: The corojo wrapper has a nice sheen, with minimal veins. Prelight draw is moderate, tasting of earth and a hint of spice.

Burn: The burn got a bit uneven a few times, but corrected on its own. Ash was nice and solid, a bit flaky in spots. Draw was moderate, and the burn time was right around 1 1/2 hours.

Flavor: This cigar had a nice earthy flavor with hints of spice to start. In the last third the spice really kicked up.

Summary: Another stick I really enjoyed. I fired this up after cooking up a nice steak with a dry rub, and it was a perfect "dessert" smoke for that meal.

Wow, I had the toro version yesterday. Made it two inches in before I had to ditch it.
