santa rosa - cetros Review

my first review attempt , so i printed t25c review form and will try to do this smoke justice.........

but first a little history...got these smokes april 00 and was a bit disapointed with them being smaller than i thought ... sat untill sept untouched ... tried one (was ok maybe a bit better than expected)...took one out 2 days ago and was suprised to see a frosty coating ... didnt think you got bloom on milder cigars.

review time
overall appearance...excellent concistancy and they have darkened nicely in storage.kept looking at the bloom on it (smiling).9.0

quality and construction...excellent once again no veins or soft spots .firm but not to solid.8.5

aroma...only get the chance to smoke a couple times a week so they all smell great...honestly though they had that horse pee smell you get with aged smokes.8,5

flovor and aftertaste...nice spicey honduran,citrus most of all,a little cacao,and leather on the lips.was more than a little suprised with the abundance of flavor(s).9.5

burn and ash...very even burn all the way to my knuckles.ash was white with grey streaks a couple of times it went flakey but basically solid.8.5

overall...a fine smoke ,probably going to get better with time.looking forward to the rest of the box.71$ at the air port in san pedro sula ... so there is lots of smokes in this price range ... it wouldnt hurt me to aquire another box.9.0


final mark 8.8



hows this for a first try at reviewing

RE: santa rosa - cetros

Nice review. I tried a Santa Rosa a couple of years ago and wasn't too impressed. Sounds like I should give them a second chance.

RE: santa rosa - cetros

dvickery,

Thanks for the review. It's tough to get a good smoke in the cetros shape, isom or non-isom. I look forward to hearing more of your reviews. I use the T25C form regularly also.
