A truly wonderful taste experience.
Construction
The cigar was firm and had a semi-thick oily feel.
Wrapper: Ecuador – Binder: Dominican – Filler: Dominican and Nicaragua
Scent and cold draw
The wrapper had a floral and leathery scent while the filler smelled of leather and farmyard. When I took a few puffs before lighting the cigar, I could smell floral flavors combined with hay and leather.
1/3 Lets light up the PDR Y Rodriguez 10th Anniversary Millefleurs Corona
The texture of the cigar was creamy but at the same time dry. The dominant flavors it gave were hay, herbs, spiciness, florality, woodiness, cacao and dark chocolate. In the background there were flavors of espresso and grass. The retrohalation tickled a little lightly and gave nuances of white pepper. You didn’t feel all the flavors at once, it was more like they oscillated a bit between each other.
2/3 The cigar showed a lighter complexity
When I got into the second part of the PDR Y Rodriguez 10th Anniversary Millefleurs Corona it showed a lighter complexity. The texture was creamy but not nearly as dry as before. The flavors I felt were Hay which took up much more space and dominated with cacao, grass, woodiness, herbs and spiciness. In the background there were flavors of general sweetness, espresso and florality. The retrohalation tickled a little light in my nose but not at all like before and gave nuances of hay and white pepper.
3/3 Lets see how the cigar ends
The texture was creamy and the flavors of PDR Flores Y Rodriguez 10th Anniversary Millefleurs Corona were espresso, cacao, dark chocolate, hay and woodiness reminiscent of oak. In the background I felt shades of herbs, florals and an incredibly light shade of fruity sweetness. The retrohalation was smooth and gave shades of white pepper and hay.

Conclusion
PDR Flores Y Rodriguez 10th Anniversary Millefleurs Corona is a semi-complex cigar where the complexity lies in how the flavors emerge and dominate. The body, which is medium, makes it suitable for most aficionados. The cigar can be smoked incredibly slowly and you can wait a little longer between puffs than you might usually do. If I compare price vs taste vs quality, I think it is a bit cheap considering what you get.
