Aging Room Nicaragua Sonata Figurado (FreeSep24)

[JoeyBones777]

I don't have a lot of experience with Aging Room. I think this might be the second cigar total I've had from the brand but I heard good things about this blend.

Upon light up the flavor is fairly floral and sweet with an earthy undertone. As it gets to the fat part of the vitola the earth and body builds quickly. It went from medium to full in short order. The retro is punchy but not peppery. The floral component is now gone. The flavors are earth, leather, vegetal and roasted nuts. It is mostly savory with very little sweetness present.

In the second third the body has settled closer to medium. The flavors remain savory with the vegetal note coming to the forefront and the leather, earth and roasted nuts as undertones.

In the final third, body ticks up to medium full. The flavors get darker, dryer and earthier. This is not my cup of tea. Construction was good overall and had a good draw and combustion only requiring 1 touch up. My final rating is a 58 single worthy.

It is above average and clearly good quality tobacco and construction but very little of the flavor was appealing to me and I will not revisit it.

Thank you for the review. Sorry it wasn't your 'cup-of-tea'!
