San Cristobal El Principe LGR_NOV 17 (OFRW) it took me a while to figure out what to choose for this review. was thinking of picking a JL2, Vigia, or a lusi but despite those always being good i don't tend to smoke them very often. i smoke probably a good 2/3 of my cigars in the morning with a coffee. when i smoke in the morning i find myself going for the el principe the most. i like the monte 4 a lot as well but the flavor profile of the principe just goes perfectly with my morning coffee. out of 2 boxes of these i have had i only had a couple that were a little too tight or a little under filled near the foot. these always start off with a creamy leather/earthy flavor that slowly progresses into a creamy coffee flavor with hints of dark chocolate as you go into the 2nd third. the coffee and chocolate flavors seem to get stronger as you go until you get to the last third where it is just full on a creamy mocha coffee. i am never disappointed with these and find them to be a consistent 88/100 every time. couple that with the fact that the tend to be about $5 each and they have quickly become my favorite go to cigar in the morning
