Review Notes: The wrapper of this cigar is dark, dry, and smooth. It draws and burns well, puts out plenty of smoke, and the solid whitish ash is a nice contrast to the dark wrapper. The first half of this cigar tastes pretty good with a nice mix of earth, wood, and spice, but the second half is somewhat charry. I think the smaller sized Santa Rita tasted better with a shorter hit of flavor that doesn't have the time to develop the charriness. Still, the flavor is good enough along with the solid construciton to make this a good smoke overall.
