A. Flores 1975 Serie Privada Capa Habano Cigar Review

This 5×52 box pressed stick features a very soft and supple oily smooth tan wrapper with minimal veins, tight invisible seams, a light pack, what appears to be a quintuple cap and a rich cedar aroma. First light reveals a slightly snug draw with good smoke output, showing flavors of a smooth creamy textured sweet wood and tobacco with a pepper zing showing at the end of the long finish. The first third changes very little from the first light, just opening up the draw a bit. It burns very slowly, only moving an inch in the first 20 minutes. 50 minutes in at the 1/2 way point the ash is still holding on, construction is flawless and flavors remain exactly the same with no strength, just medium-full body. Ending at 1:30 with an inch remaining the whole stick proved to be consistent all the way down in flavors. This is set to debut in August 2012 at the IPCPR show.
