Smoked: Ferio Tego Timeless Panamericana

Included in a sampler, this cigar sat in my humidor for six months. I guess its band didn’t “do it” for me, so there it sat. The Ferio Tego Timeless Panamericana Epicure, a 5 x 50 robusto, was a knockout with full body, full strength, delicious flavor transitions (you know, the usual wood, spices, leather, etc.), perfect draw and smoke production, and a razor-sharp burn. The pepper that dominated the retrohale initially, disappeared entirely as the second third came into play. Such a fine stogie that was right up my alley.

Rarely do I find an absolutely-perfect-without-question cigar/spirit pairing. However, the Evan Williams Bourbon on the rocks qualified as such. Simply fabulous. Cheers!
