1502 Black Gold Toro Cigar Review

This 6×50 box pressed stick features a very dark brown almost black wrapper with a firm even pack, minimal veins, tight invisible seams, triple cap, an oily very toothy feel and faint tobacco aroma. First light reveals a perfect draw with minimal smoke output showing medium bodied flavors of a faint musty tobacco and earth with a very short clean finish. The first third quickly brings in more flavor, keeping the tobacco as the front runner adding some black pepper through the mix without and spice. Performance is excellent with a fast burn and straight burn. Hitting the 1/2 way point at 30 minutes the burn slows down and the body drops to mild-medium. Smoke output is quite good at this point, carrying the same profile. Ending at the hour mark the last third comes back to a solid medium body bringing up the tobacco quite a bit through the now long finish. Thank you very much to 1502 Cigars for sending this for review!
