Review Notes: Cigars are beautifully box-pressed, and I¡¦ve left them in the humidor for about 2 months. Wrapper is oily and veiny, cigar is solid with good cap construction. Clipping and lighting is easy. Draw is very smooth, burn is almost even, and the burn rate is slow. Has an earthy, leathery, and cedery. Smoke is very creamy, and it is medium-bodied. Ash is grayish white, but not firm (a little bit flaky). Aroma of this cigar is pleasant. It is a very good cigar, but somehow I have never liked Maria Mancini from the start. This was one of the brands that I¡¦ve tried for the first time last year. I am never disappointed with Maria Mancini¡¦s because of its consistency. I recommend this cigar for an everyday after-dinner smoke.
