Today was my first time with this Cuba Aliados Original Blend by Julio Eiroa in Robusto. I was looking forward to sparking this because I had such a good experience with its sister Cuba Aliados by E.P. Carrillo… delicious!
The bottom line on this version… not so much.
Once lit, though a perfect draw come full on natural tobacco flavors from this softly packed cigar. The retrohale is a reflection of its complicated smoke. After 15 minutes in, I’ve nearly finished the first third already.
We are into the second third… and I’m not impressed… this is smoking more like a Connecticut … oh well, not what I was expecting. I have another resting in the TuppdrDor, so we’ll see what happens after another month or so.
