Construction
The wrapper had a lighter oiliness to it. There was a lighter vein behind the wrapper that worried me a little at first. But it turned out that the cigar glowed perfectly straight from start to finish.
Wrapper: Ecuador – Binder: Cameroon – Filler: Nicaragua
Smell and cold draw
The wrapper of the Roma Craft Aquitaine Knuckle Dragger Short Robusto cigar had a scent of dark chocolate while the filler had a scent combination of dark chocolate and vanilla. The cold draft gave flavors of hay.
Lets light up the Roma Craft Aquitaine Knuckle Dragger Short Robusto
After I had roasted The wrapper of the Roma Craft Aquitaine Knuckle Dragger Short Robusto cigar, a buttery texture met my taste buds. The flavors I felt in the cigar were dark chocolate/cocoa, hay, general woodiness, pepperiness, fruitiness, saltiness, roasted almonds and nutmeg. In the background were shades of vanilla and the classic sweet tobacco taste. The inhalation was dry and gave a flavor combination of hay, white pepper and black pepper. The draw of the cigar was a little tighter than I would have preferred.
After taste
The aftertaste of the Roma Craft Aquitaine Knuckle Dragger Short Robusto cigar was the classic tobacco taste.
