The Maldonado Dynasty The Mogul 6/14/15


Appearance
Milk chocolatey brown with tight seams. 1 prominent vein.

Aroma
Earthy aroma on the wrapper with a hint of sweetness. Same at the foot.

Prelight Draw
Chocolate and dried fruit.

1st
First puffs bring out notes of chocolate, espresso and dried fruit. Draw is a hair snug but I'm sure it will loosen as we go. Burn line has been perfect since toasting. The ash is light gray and tight. At 3/4" into the cigar I'm noticing a hint of spice. It has a long balanced finish with notes of Chocolate, espresso,dried fruit and spice. Near the end of the 1st/3rd the spice note reminds of cinnamon toast. Draw has loosened up nicely. Ash dropped at end of 1st/3rd.

2nd
Flavors from 1st/3rd continue into 2nd. Just after the 1/2 way point the spice ramps up a bit to more of a Pimenton (spanish paprika). Draw & burn still spot on. Strength picks up from solid medium to med/full.

Final/3rd
More of the same flavors. It was a very enjoyable cigar. I would definitely smoke again. GoGetchasome™!! Thanks to @MaldonadoDynsty for the samples to review.
