Trinidad La Trova 2018

[nKostyan]

Thanks to the opinion of FOH members about La Trova: I tried my first La Trova. I was in no hurry to try this cigar thanks to the negative reviews of Russian cigar smokers. The fact is that not the best batch of cigars apparently got into Russia, therefore, according to reviews of smokers of this cigar, weak twisting density and ammonia content were revealed.

I found out that the Russian distributor had already received cigars rolled at 2018, but decided not to risk it and asked my friends to buy for me a cigar in Europe, which was rolled at 2018. But I don't know the factory code.

 

At Cold: weak aroma of leather, hazelnuts, cream. 

 

1/3. Wood, creaminess, sweet and sour, skin. After warming up the wood dominates, the hazelnut skin taste, cream. The cut smells like pleasantly slightly roasted nuts. 

The cigar immediately disposed to slow thoughtful smoking. Deep puffs also do not give density or quantities of smoke. Strength rather low. Burning smooth. Toward the middle of 1/3, the volume and density of smoke slightly increases and the notes of nuts in the aftertaste become roasted. The room smells of nut baked pastries. The cigar also smells good and I want to bite it off and eat it. The taste is gradually enhanced. I make frequent puffs to satisfy my thirst for taste and smoke.

 

2/3. Dumping ash closer to 2/3 gives a noticeable increase in the amount of smoke. Lightly roasted walnut clearly shows in taste. The development is very smooth. The palate is woody-hazelnut creamy soft and pleasant. It seemed to me that I fast smoked 1/3 with frequent puffs, but looking at the Clock I realized that 50 minutes had already passed unnoticed. The aftertaste is nutty with woody sourness. Now, in 2/3 deep intensive puffs give a lot of medium-light density smoke, it quickly dissolves in the air. I try to exhale smoke to enjoy its aroma.

I try to exhale the smoke slowly under my nose to enjoy its aroma.

With the middle of the cigar with each puff begins to bring an explosive rich taste with a tingling of mucous membranes and a decent amount of smoke. Now you can increase the time between puffs.

 

3/3. Finally, the cigar gives explosive puffs. Lots of smoke, a lot of taste. The taste has become rounded and it is difficult to distinguish the angles of the components of taste. Smoke stinging tongue. The taste is not clogged with tar, which was expected for a non-strong cigar. The burning goes inside the Cigar and I smoke it with double puffs, for which the cigar bombards me with explosions of smoke and taste.

 

Total smoking time: 150 min

Total score: great cigar, 5/5 stars

Good review. This is the only thing that puzzled me. Not really sure what you meant by that
