All Saints Dedicación Commandant (Toro) by All Saints

08/27/2023
Once lit, the All Saints Dedicación delivers mouthfuls of chewy smoke with peppery tobacco flavors of dark coffee and cocoa with some leather hanging in the background; also with the distinct earthiness of the Mexican San Andrés wrapper with a touch of that Nicaraguan spice. The interplay between the wrapper’s deep richness and the underlying Nicaraguan filler’s zest is captivating. You’ll find the retrohale here particularly intriguing, as it adds a layer of peppery complexity that balances the cocoa sweetness. The first third lays down the foundation of this cigar’s flavor journey, setting the stage for what’s to come.

Progressing to the second act, the All Saints Dedicación stands firmly delivering cedar tobacco flavors and a delightful mix of semi-sweet cocoa and leather. The Nicaraguan filler’s influence becomes more pronounced, offering hints of black pepper and a subtle spiciness that dances on your palate. The Mexican San Andrés wrapper continues to provide a velvety backdrop, complementing the evolving flavors. The retrohale in this phase remains consistent, providing a satisfying contrast of sweet and spicy that enhances the overall experience.

In the final leg of this cigar journey, the All Saints Dedicación takes a crescendo towards a robust and memorable finish. The same tobacco flavors remain intact with cedar and bitter dark chocolate flavors. The retrohale maintains its charm with a spicy pepper , offering a refined balance of flavors that leaves a lasting impression.

In summary, the All Saints Dedicación is a testament to the artistry of blending – a harmonious dance between a Mexican San Andrés wrapper and Nicaraguan tobaccos. From the initial draws of chocolate and coffee to the evolving complexities of cocoa, cedar, and pepper, this cigar keeps you engaged. The retrohale experience is a highlight, showcasing the dynamic interplay of sweet and spicy sensations.
