Smooth with a bite

Cigar Reviewed: Pappy van winkle family reserve

Smoked at: Middle Tennessee

The Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve by Drew Estate. Let's start off with the dry smell. It has almost a smooth tobacco/leather hint when smelling it. This smell is very distinct and pleasing. The burn is moderate, not too fast but not that slow. This would make a great smoke to time a good conversation. The taste is smooth, but has a little bite to it. When smoking I get a hint of spice that compliments the smell. I will be keeping a few of these in my collection for spontaneous occasions. The look is a two tone, light below the wrapping and a modelo dark above. This gives off a elegant look when holding it. Thus overall a very enjoyable cigar.
