JRE Aladino Elegante

This is a medium-brown wrapped lancero. The main aroma from the foot is coffee. The bunch is firm and the cold draw is perfect. This morning’s beverage is Steep18 Cold Brew Original coffee.

The cigar starts off very smooth with coffee and cedar notes. There is a medium black pepper note in the retrohale. The burn is excellent.

In the first third the cigar is very medium bodied. The flavor profile remains about the same with a bit of sweetness around the edges. The pepper in the retrohale remains smooth. The burn remains excellent.

During the second third hints of cocoa join the flavor profile. The cigar is extremely smooth. The retrohale remains smooth and somewhat peppery. The burn remains excellent.

Approaching the final inch the complexity of flavors remains excellent. The construction is also excellent. This is an excellent morning cigar to have with coffee.
