CIGAR REVIEW - FONSECA VINTAGE IS GOOD!

CIGAR REVIEW - FONSECA VINTAGE IS GOOD!


CIGAR REVIEW - I received this Fonseca Vintage in my latest trade with Cigar Luckes. It was an ash monster as you can see from the picture. I have to admit I didn't like the start.

Highly dominated by mineral flavor with a strong sugar aftertaste. The middle third however was pleasant, more robust, hints of leather, wood, and a smooth buttery draw. Nearly all the mineral and sugar were gone at the halfway point and it added pepper as a replacement.

The final third left me with a 'nothing special' mind set. I had to remind myself how much I enjoyed the middle third. I'll smoke another one with a strong IPA. I think a refreshing beer would help me through the beginning and end of the smoke.


TOTAL = 87%
RECOMMENDED = YES!
