Blind Cigar Review: Esteban Carreras | Habano Toro

"Slightly burnt caramel on the palate with baking spices on the retrohale were the initial flavors to greet me. A light coffee lingered. Muted vanilla, oak and a touch of cedar combined with the caramel and baking spices. Not much spice on the retro after the first 1/2 inch." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: Relic by A.J. Fernandez | Robusto

"The first two thirds of this cigar are some of the best and most complex you can find in a full body smoke. Burn, draw and construction are all top notch and the cigar is very well made. Unfortunately, the finish becomes unbalanced and slightly bitter in the final third. This can be a product of age and letting this cigar sit for a few months or so will rid the final third of this bitter note. I could buy 10 or so of this cigar and it will hit the mark when I am looking for a full body smoke. However, there are a few other full bodied cigars I would reach for over this one." -Dave (Cigar Jukebox)
