Casa Cuevas Maduro

Review Cigar #1: This cigar would be a great first for a new smoker. No major transitions noticed between thirds, the light body means it isn't overwhelming the senses, and the nicotine kick was not too severe. A caramel candy or cream soda would pair well to take the edge off. Wrapper quality is solid - offering a shiny sheen, solid construction, and a nice thick wrapper. The draw is great, toward the snug side. No touch-ups were needed until the very end, where I almost expect a touch-up being needed. The smoke texture was a bit mouth-watering for me. The ash was quite strong and sported a bright white/silver ash. Temperature 89°F / Humidity: 40% / Duration: 2hrs

Review Cigar #2: No further comments to make. The experience was much the same from start to finish. I guess there's something to be said for consistency! Temperature 88°F / Humidity: 45% / Duration: 1hr 40m

Musty, dank basement

Stallone Alagan Review: First Third

A little pepper, slightly sweet, musty oak, toasted wheat bread, some mint at tail end. Creamy smoke.

Stallone Alagan Review: Second Third

Creamy smoke continues, same flavors as first third, with some new caramel hints and diminished pepper kick.

Stallone Alagan Review: Final Third

A little pepper returns, with the same previous flavors at a higher intensity.
