Once again I have a great cigar from the RTDA show that was given to me to try.\u00c2\u00a0 This is the brand new blend from Cuban Crafters, CC has come out with a lot of new blends including the “Contraband” <\/a>cigar I reviewed a couple of months ago.<\/p>\n

This cigar is a very attractive vitola with a nice double band.\u00c2\u00a0 The cigar itself has a nice Connecticut shade wrapper and from the looks of it appears very mild.\u00c2\u00a0 There were a few small veins running through the wrapper but nothing that would affect the burn.\u00c2\u00a0 In fact I experienced no burn issues what so ever.<\/p>\n

There were ample amounts of smoke from this cigar and flavors of cream and cedar.\u00c2\u00a0 Through the second third there were great buttery flavors with with a bit of white pepper.\u00c2\u00a0 This cigar stayed mild thorughout but the flavors were great.\u00c2\u00a0 The last third brought out some more white pepper but then started to get a bit harsh.\u00c2\u00a0 It then took a plunge in the ashtray.\u00c2\u00a0 I would recommend this cigar to those who like mild breakfast worthy smokes with their coffee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
