This is the original blend that began Don Pepin Garcia's "My Father," "La Aroma de Cuba" (and other notable brands) fame. This "Exquisitos" is a good, basic 5 5/8 x 46 corona grande, with medium body/strength, not complex with little transition, but with pleasant, peppery notes of wood, a bit of leather, and very slightly fruity. The flavor(s) kind of reminded me of cigars of 50 years ago.

Have a good weekend, everyone! Cheers!
