La Aurora Belicoso Maduro Cigar Review
This 6.25×52 stick offers a dark brown wrapper showing minimal veins, clean seams and a very firm pack. 3/4″ had to be clipped off the tip for a decent draw, producing just an average amount of smoke on the draw. First third flavors were of caramel and licorice sweetness, a mild earth, slight woodiness and small pepper and spice kick on the long finish. At the half way point flavors changed to a smooth oily, creamy leather with a mild pepper that kicks up on the finish. In the final third flavors remained the same while the draw improved along with smoke production, reaching a very good volume pushing chewy. Thank you very much to viewer Jeremie Plouffe for generously sending this in for review! Photography by BG Pictures.
Flavor profile sounds good… but there is nothing more frustrating to me than a cigar I can tell has great flavors but has annoying constuction issues- be it burn, draw, staying lit, wrapper splitting, etc. It’s just distracting. I know cigars require attention, but sometimes it just ruins the experience… especially when flavors are good!
Great Review Bryan, I have had similar experience with the draw, I like a looser draw to. It’s such a good smoke on a sunday morning with coffee though. I have some more daily smoke’s that are in my price range that I want you to try so once your done with the stick’s I have sent you, I will send you some new one’s to review.
Thanks,
Jérémie
