    La Aurora 1495 Series (Robusto)

    Initial Puffs:

    Lots going on

    Citrusy, little acidic

    Cherry and zesty lemon

    White pepper or strong spice

    Maybe some leather tucked in

    1/3:

    Cherry is more cherry wood

    Spicy, not peppery - can't discern exact spice. Not very spicy, yet very present.

    Still a bit lemony/zesty

    Possible nougat and/or marshmello

    The meld starts to take an interesting turn towards becoming a combo of a spicy (not pepper or hot pepper) hot toddy and toasty nougat/marshello.

    2/3:

    Hot toddy

    Spice

    Toasted nougat/marshmello

    The habano starts to shine probably around the 1/2 mark - that's where I really noticed it.

    3/3:

    Maybe more toasty and spice

    Tossed with about 2 inches remaining due to time.

    Construction:

    Kinda tight draw. Probably the only negative thing about this stick. May need more rest though to dry out.

    Tightly packed and SOLID stick, yet spongy enough when compressed to not crack the wrapper.

    Beautiful stick.

    Very nice burn.

    Very slow burning.

    Burn Time:

    1.5 hrs - and there was still about 2 inches remaining (3rd pic was where I tossed it).

    Judgement:

    Outstanding cigar. Probably the best kept secret of Cigarbid. Easily the best $1 cigar I've smoked. Gonna try to stock up on these bad boys. Highly recommended.
