First time smoking this Las Calaveras Edición Limitada 2017 by Crowned Heads Cigars today.
From the cold draw, I was detecting some unique baking spices… Once lit, my eyes go wide from the buttery, creamy smooth smoke of the dark coffee, cocoa, and leather tobacco flavors with a spicy pepper kick on the retrohale.
At about the halfway point, creamy chocolate notes and dark coffee become the dominant tobacco flavors with some woody notes along with a zippy sharp retrohale… The burn and draw are spot on!
As I approach the last third some of those baking spices are starting to reveal themselves in a very nuanced way while the rest of the tobacco flavors become more intense and upfront. Black pepper tobacco flavors are coating my tongue as I near the end of the delicious cigar.
I can’t wait for the next time… I was able to find a few of these still available online…
