Product Introduction

Sancho Panza Belicosos is a hand - made Cuban cigar. It has a smoking time of 50 mins. Its format is Torpedo, size is 140 x 20.64 mm (6.4 x 42), ring is 52, and weight is 12.45 g. The box code is TPG JUN 08. A box of 25 costs around $210.

Sancho Panza was created in 1848, sold and re - sold at least five times, and ended up with El Rey del Mundo house in 1931. Its flagship vitolas like Belicosos and Molinos were popular in Europe decades later but are less well - known now.

Appearance

The oily wrapper has moderate veining and visible imperfections. It has a minimalistic band like El Triunfador. The wrapper tastes salty, and the pre - draw shows spice and sweetness.

Construction

The Belicoso burns and draws well, with corrections needed in the last third. It produces moderate amounts of white, concentrated smoke, and the grey ash holds for over one inch.

Flavor

• One third: After a black pepper hit, it has woody flavors. As it passes 1.5 inches, earth and roasted coffee flavors appear.
• Two thirds: This is the favorite part, with a good flavor combination.
• Three thirds: Wood flavor dominates again, and the power increases.

Value

Buying by the box, the price per cigar is below $10, which is an interesting value.
