Meet the Davidoff Escurio Gran Perfecto - a Brazilian adventure rolled into 5 inches of premium tobacco. This figurado-shaped stogie packs 60/50 ring gauge density, delivering Dominican-Brazilian fusion at $244.80 per box of 12. Perfect for evening unwinding sessions when you crave something bolder than your usual Connecticut shade smoke.
The initial draws hit with salty pretzel crust and cedar planks. Brazilian tobacco asserts itself through white pepper spice that tingles the tongue without biting. Smoke production stays moderate - about 1.5oz/min with tight ash formation.
At the 30-minute mark, the blend shifts gears. Creamy cashew butter emerges, carrying preserved lemon peel acidity. Watch for occasional mineral streaks in the retrohale resembling wet river stones. Burn line stays razor-sharp despite the tapered foot.
Last third brings the Brazilian fireworks - licorice root melds with 80% dark chocolate bitterness. Coffee grounds intensity builds up, requiring sips of sparkling water to cleanse the palate. Cap it at 50-minute mark to avoid nicotine rush from the thick ring gauge.
