Blind Cigar Review: Aganorsa Leaf | Buena Cosecha Corojo Torpedo

Posted by Emmett | Dec 3, 2018 | All, Blind Cigar Reviews, Featured, IPCPR, Natural, Nicaragua |

There was a bit of honey sweetness mixed with tea, coffee and just a hint of spice at the very end of the smoke. It stayed cool/light bodied the entire smoke, and never got above medium in strength. ” -Mickey T. (irratebass)
