Kilo Toro Cigar Review

This 6×52 stick is a project by former blogger Barry Stein, who you may have seen on a CO Live show back when he was with Miami Cigar Co.  It features a dark chocolate mottled wrapper with a firm even pack, slick buttery feel, minimal veins, tight invisible seams, triple cap and pungent sweet coffee and cocoa aroma.  First light reveals a perfect draw with medium-full bodied smoke showing a big slightly bitter tobacco quickly followed by a potent pepper and spice through the long finish.  The first third quickly shifts to a vegetal and tobacco mix that again quickly shifts to a dry tobacco and coffee flavor.  The finish still has a pepper and spice build up but it’s milder. 30 minutes in at the 1/2 way point the ash has dropped twice in clean chunks, flavors have shifted to a touch of the dry tobacco with a bigger coffee and cream at the core.  The finish has dropped most of the pepper and spice holding on to an oily earthiness.  Ending at 1:10 the last third burned slowly, shifting to a warm zingy earth followed by the same through the finish. Thank you to Barry Stein for sending this for review!  You can snag these at 2guyscigars.com or a retailer near you.  If you would like your photo featured in an upcoming video, send it to bryan@cigarobsession.com and be sure to use the subject Viewer Showcase.
