Last night after several hours of wedding planning, I decided i had earned myself a drink and a nice cigar. I went and dug around the humi a bit and found a VR Famosos I had recently been gifted and decided that was it!!
First, The presentation was fantastic. Perfect wrapper: oily, smooth, few veins and flawless otherwise. I couldn't help but just roll it around in my hands and really take it in. Beautiful!
The prelight draw was great, very woody with a bit of spice. Perfect draw.
As i began to torch this it gave off great amounts of pleasent white smoke with a smooth tail of blue whipping off of the foot. The taste is spicy and woody with a bit of sweetnes on the finish.
About half way through, this cigar became a real flavor bomb. It was spicy but not overwhelming. The burn so far has been a bit uneven.
On a final note, This is one great cigar. With some more age this cigar will really hold its own. I look forward to trying these after some more rest. I highly suggest this cigar and brand.
This flavor bomb took a toll on my cutter, poor guy.
