Trinidad Reyes, OUS DIC09.

Just another short cigar. After this I have gone through every shorty from my humidor, except HUHC which has already been reviewed here.

Music: Living Colour / Pride. Drink: Coke.

Cigar weight 6.47g. Perfect construction. Colorado wrapper with clean tobacco scent on it. Used Palio for cutting. Medium draw. Cold draw gives tobacco flavour, stronger than usually. Fire.

1/3 Toasted tobacco, ginger and white pepper in perfect balance. Some hay. This is a tasty cigar! The mentioned flavours change their levels a little within the mixture on every puff. Otherwise the cigar would become boring, but this behaviour makes it interesting.

2/3 Some sweet toffee every now and then on the background. Hints of mild herbal aroma. All the flavours above are still swaying nicely with each other.

3/3 The herbal aspect is getting a bit stronger. Toasted tobacco with ginger for a long time, pepper has gone away. Some clove. Mild burning wood. Some citrus-like sharpness. Wood. Leaving the cigar with warm fingers.

Smoking time 0:56. Creamy tobacco as an aftertaste.

Excellent medium complex cigar with medium body and medium to full flavour.

I'd like to say this is somehow a very sophisticated cigar. Trinidad gave its best today!

Thanks for reading.

Had one from 12 a few nights ago decorating the house for the holidays. I wasn't able to give it my full attention but pretty good. Great review. Will need to smoke another and actually relax with it.

I've enjoyed the Reyes so far. I didn't experience the same complexity as you, probably due to mine being 12's, yet the flavour was constant and gorgeous from start to finish. Thanks for the review

God these are so good young, and even better (how is it possible!) when older!

Thanks for the review, may have to break a vacuum pack for winter.
