SANCHO PANZA - EXTRA FUERTE - CADIZ

Country of origin: Honduras
Size: 6.125 x 54 belicoso
Wrapper: habano - Honduras
Binder: Honduras
Filler: Honduran- Nicaraguan
medium/full

A very enjoyable smoke with a rich spicy backbone. The wrapper is a dark red, slightly toothy. Draw and burn is excellent as with most of General Cigars products. On light up the there is a nice bit of spice with a hint of cedar. The flavor builds slightly but stays in the medium range right on the edge of full. I have read where some think this cigar is for the seasoned smoker but I have gifted them to newbies who have enjoyed them immensly. They seem to have more flavor than strength if that makes any sense. I usually smoke them up when I get them so I am not sure how they age. Price wise the belicoso retails for about $58 and the other sizes under $50 a box. I would suggest tyring a 5er before buying a box just to make sure the taste agrees with your palate. If not then package the rest of them up and send them to me.
