Estebam Carreras Chupa Cabra

Cigar Reviewed: Esteban Carreras Chupa Cabra

Smoked at: Cincinnati

Fired one up last night with a dram of Ardbeg 10. The construction on these sticks is top notch. You'll get an even burn and long ash. The draw is excellent. No touch ups necessary. It's a med-full maduro with all the notes of nuttiness, cocoa, a hint of coffee, and some spice. There is sweetness in there I can't really identify. A bit of pepper is my only objection to the flavor. It is a terrific stick and quite affordable although not always easy to find. Just be careful with the pigtail. One false move and you'll tear the cap and unravel the wrapper. Removed correctly, the Chupa Cabra has an excellent draw.
