LGC Tainos LRE DIC 09 (CRW)

[Perla]

Cold draw: apricot and honey

Draw: perfect

LRE is from Partagas Factory 

 

As we have at the moment wonderful weather over here. Work is done, weekend is coming up. Why not taken the chance to find peace in a cigar. 

First Third

A light sweetness, a touch of liquorice. Dry mouthfeel. 

Very mild but full of flavour. Found it grassy, woody and floral notes. 

 

A little story on the side: I bought all my Tainos boxes between 2012-2013. In total there were 18 boxes and I could buy 5 of them. Yes, the plan was to buy them all piece by piece. Well how plans are like that. One day I came back and all my boxes were gone including the Partagas Con. 3 boxes. A very sobering experience. What did I learn? If you see a good opportunity, take it. Do not hesitate. 

 

What I really don’t get why they chopped all these wonderful Churchill’s? 
 

Now I am in the second third the Tainos is getting more and more taste of black tea, dark honey and it’s going from mild to medium. Ash is grey and wonderful. 

Hints of burned Creme brûlée. 

Last Third

Drop the ash as usually. Now it’s in the upper medium range. Stayed with black tea, wood, leather and dark honey. In the back are some floral hints.

Call me crazy, but I feel like there is a black tea note that is common in many of the churchills  I smoke from that era, regardless of marca.
