Review: Caliber Cigars Joint Service Robusto Aged 3 Years (Redux)

Stallone Alagan Review: The Experience

Excellent range of flavor notes! I love a cigar like this that has noticeable profile changes at every third. There is a 3rd for every palate style to enjoy. Not super complex but a nice complexity in the aforementioned profile changes.

Stallone Alagan Review: First Third

Quickly through an inch of medium pepper, notes of an earthy, rich, caramel and cinnamon come to the forefront. This remains the theme until the end of the third when a bittersweet chocolate note joins into the mix.

Stallone Alagan Review: Second Third

The chocolate note soon takes over but gets more rich, dark and fudgey. A touch of honey soon follows. A the halfway point it takes on more of an oaky and mesquite woodiness with a light cinnamon finish at the retro.

Stallone Alagan Review: Final Third
Still woody the the finishing spice becomes more of a floral/potpourri note. Additional notes of a warm, earthy honey, cocoa and sweet tobacco slowly join in with that floral bouquet at the end and as a retro spice.
