Smoked: Aladino Classic

Smoked at: West Chester, Ohio

Aladino Classic is a medium body, medium strength all Honduran cigar with a habano wrapper and corojo binder. The filler is reported to be a mix of habano and corojo.

The cold draw was a tad tight, but quickly opened up thanks to my handy Perfect Draw, solid white ash that never dropped, smoke production was weak, straight even burn line that never required a touchup.

Spice, mild pepper, oak and cedar, cashews, bread, and hints of chocolate, caramel and vanilla Earthy, pepper and mineral notes on the retrohale. No real transitions, but the flavor profile remained quite enjoyable start to finish. It kept me interested. Julio Eiroa deserves a round of applause for this stick.
