Smoking Experience

First Third

Cold draw reveals cedar and lemon zest. Initial combustion releases black pepper spray with toasted cashews. Smoke output remains moderate despite the large ring gauge. Burn line stays razor-sharp, holding 1" ash effortlessly.

Middle Third

Core flavors shift to milk chocolate and cinnamon as the San Andres binder asserts itself. Retrohale introduces salty pretzel notes. Draw resistance increases slightly around the midpoint - quick poker tool adjustment maintains airflow.

Final Third

Mineral tang emerges through wisps of mesquite smoke. Last inch brings walnut skins and faint raisin sweetness. Strength crescendos to full-bodied territory, demanding slower pacing. No harshness detected despite pushing to nub.

Comparable Toro Options

  • Padron 1964 Anniversary Toro (6.5"x50): Nicaraguan earthiness meets caramelized sugar
  • Oliva Serie V Melanio Toro (6"x50): Leather-dominant profile with espresso crema
  • My Father Le Bijou 1922 (6.1"x52): Intense cocoa powder and volcanic soil

Construction Notes

The triple-seam cap unravels cleanly with guillotine cutters. Pack density varies slightly between samples - one required minor massage to optimize draw. Tubos packaging preserved ideal 65% humidity during six-month aging. No wrapper splits observed even in dry winter conditions.
