The My Father The Judge Toro hits shelves as a 6x56 box-pressed torpedo from Nicaragua's famed García family. Priced at $269.10 for 23 sticks, this full-bodied beast combines Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper with dual Nicaraguan binders. The box press isn't just aesthetic - it delivers perfect airflow from first light to nub.
Initial puffs unleash black pepper and espresso grounds. The box-pressed shape keeps smoke output manageable despite the 56 ring gauge. Ash holds tight for 2+ inches with minimal canoeing.
Sweetness emerges through charred oak notes - think bourbon-barrel aged maple syrup. Retrohale brings unexpected baking spices (cardamom dominant) without overwhelming nicotine punch.
Leather tones dominate as combustion heat rises. Savory umami flavor develops, similar to smoked beef jerky. Stop at 1.5" remaining to avoid tar bitterness.
The triple cap withstands multiple V-cuts without unraveling. Wrapper veins align vertically along the box-pressed edges, showing masterful rolling technique. Box aging recommendation: 8-12 months for optimal oil distribution.
