I had an Alec Bradley Coyol a few months ago when I first reentered the Cigar Hobby this year (2018). I was fortunate to be able to purchase a 10-cigar Alec Bradley Sampler that provided two of these; one that I smoked last June when I received them in the mail.
OK, I fire it up and smoky earth and a pepper spice hit on the retrohale greet me immediately.
I’m close to the end of the first third and the earthiness and pepper spice seems to be the theme of this cigar throughout. Don’t get me wrong, this is a very enjoyable and relaxing cigar; one that I know I won’t have fuss with, smooth consistent flavor all the way up to this point. I arrive at the last third.
I acquired this from a 10-pack Alec Bradley sampler last March 2018, so, as you can imagine the price was correct. If you don’t mind a perfect draw, perfect even char-line, mouthfuls of dry earthy smoke with a faint taste of almonds, try one of these and Chill.
