Just smoked one of these masterful cigars - afternoon after a light lunch with coffee and a martini. This is a complex, medium bodied, full flavoured Bolivar with the conicle tip which gives that extra little intensity to the flavours. A perfect and delicious balance of honeyed cocoa, rich woods, cream, light spices and dustings of fresh ground coffee and leather. It's full flavoured but not a beast, it's an extremely refined Havana, usually perfectly crafted. For me it is certainly the best Campana/Pyramide cigar, and one of my absolute favourite cigars and my favourite Bolivar. Nice when fresh, magnificent when aged. It's not unusual for me to nub cigars but this one even raises my eyebrows with how easily I can trully nub it before it gets at all acidic on the palate. A must try. :-)
