Re: El Centurion
Had this recommended to me by the humidor manager at a cigar bar in Boston. I generally like Pepin's sticks, so I took a shot and this one didn't disappoint.
* Great aroma on the pre-light draw
* Stick burned evenly and true for the first 2/3, then needed a minor touch up
* Nice peppery flavors during the initial draws. Settled down into a deceptively full bodied smoke. I say deceptive because I wasn't sensing that this stick was all that strong until I tried to stand and got a little wobbly legged.
* The last third of this cigar kicked my butt. It was powerful but never acrid. Smelled delicious throughout. Great after taste.
I would definitely pick up this stick again. I'm finding I really like almost all of Pepin's lines.
