1/2 Lets light up the Stallone Tostado maduro
After I lit the cigar I was greeted by a creamy texture with a slight dryness. The flavors the cigar offered were a nuttiness that was most dominant while the other flavors were complementary to the nuttiness, woodiness, espresso, pepperiness and herbs. In the background there were shades of dark cherries and grass. The retrohalation tickled my nose and gave shades of white pepper.
2/2 A lighter complexity emerged
As I came in to the second half of Stallone Tostado maduro it showed a minor complexity. The texture was creamy and the flavors i felt where cacao, sweet espresso, freshly cut grass, classic sweet tobacco sweetness and florality. In the background the cigar offered flavors of dark berries and herbs. The retrohale got a little smoother but still tickled my nose a little bit and presented nuttiness of wood and white pepper.
