Popular Post Fox Sterlingworth Posted June 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2022 Alex Canonazo. My first time trying one of these Alex customs. Not bad, nice draw, big smoke output. Flavor is at times very promising, other times a bit “green”. Perhaps another year or two in humidor would do it justice. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NSXCIGAR Posted June 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2022 Party Legado in Havana. Very interesting...in a good way. Silky smooth, refined and flavorful. Would have a hard time guessing it as a Partagas until about halfway when a little spicy earth crept in. And I love the Hermosos No. 2. Totally underutilized vitola. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark wrappers can have burn issues and heavier flavours. On the other hand I think dark wrappers are supposed to age better (it might just be that they need more age, i have a ). I have some 2009 punch rs 12 and they have very dark wrappers and I think they could still go longer. Same with 2016 Hoyo du prince, though not to the same extreme. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our b&m Sales guy keep on telling me go for darker wrappers they’re much better ! My limited experience seems to be the opposite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for certain cigars like monte edmundo/petite Edmundo dark wrappers can be nice. But yeah, I don't seek them out.

On the other hand, don't mind a BBF with a darker, oily wrapper - the Guinness flavor stands out a bit more 22 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My box of light wrapper clearance (FOH) 2019 is better than my box of PSP 2020. The dark wrapper ones are very strong clove / spices. Almost overwhelming. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
