This robust toro boasts a prominent vein structure and begins with a complex blend of woody and floral notes. As it smokes, a rich leathery character unfolds, accompanied by flavors of dried fruit, sweet vanilla, and creamy coconut, ultimately giving way to a salty finish. The draw is somewhat tight, and some smokers may notice uneven burning. The flavor profile is multifaceted, featuring cedar, creamy notes, almond, and hints of cocoa, with subtle undertones of marshmallow, chocolate, and a tangy twang. Additional nuances include citrus, pepper, earthy tones, nutty flavors, and milk chocolate, while leathery, woody, and sweet elements like molasses, coffee, and shortbread also make appearances. The finish is marked by a salty taste, with whiffs of floral, buttery, spicy, honey, and tobacco notes, alongside hints of hay, mocha, and toasted flavors, all wrapped in a distinct Cuban character.
