Appearance
Dark chocolate San Andrés Maduro wrapper with a couple thin veins. The seams are tight and invisible. No visible oils on the wrapper.
Aroma
Cocoa powder and earth on the wrapper and molasses at the foot.
Prelight Draw
Cocoa and molasses
1st
After the first few puffs, notes of wood join dark chocolate notes. It has a pleasant draw and the burn at 3/8" in is almost perfect. At about 1/2" in a spice note begins developing. Shortly after the spice emerged there is a citrus note that takes center stage. The ash is light gray and mostly tight. By the end of the 1st the flavors have melded together.
2nd
The flavors from the 1st/3rd continue on into the 2nd. Midway through some cashew notes join the mix. The strength of the cigar started as a mild/medium and at the 1/2 way point has developed to a medium+. The ash holds strong for each 3rd.
Final/3rd
The flavors continue on through the final/3rd of the cigar. The strength peaks at medium+. Overall the Acme Premier Maduro was a pleasurable smoking experience.
Thanks to my brother JD @HN_JAD for providing the Acme cigars for review. Acme @Acme_Cigars is a sister brand of AKA Cigars @AKAcigars . Try both brands for yourself.
