This box-pressed toro comes in sleek aluminum tubes that keep the Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper pristine. At 6"x52 with medium-full strength, it delivers 90-minute sessions of dense smoke perfect for after-dinner indulgence. Limited to 250 daily productions at Drew Estate's Nicaraguan factory, these cigars represent non-Cuban craftsmanship at its finest.
The cold draw releases raisin sweetness before ignition. Initial puffs burst with bakers chocolate and wet earth notes, accompanied by faint white pepper retrohale. Thick smoke coats the palate despite moderate draw resistance.
Flavors intensify as roasted coffee beans and charred oak emerge. Noticeable nicotine presence develops while maintaining balance through caramelized sugar undertones. Ash holds solid for 1.5" segments.
Leather and black cherry take center stage with increased tar accumulation. Requires slower pacing to avoid bitterness. Concludes with lingering dark cocoa powder sensation on lips.
The triple-cap head requires precise cutting - v-cut users report optimal results. Fermented 18 months in Connecticut River Valley barns, the oily wrapper withstands humid climate better than most maduros. Box code analysis shows 8-month minimum aging pre-shipment.
