Virtuoso Cigars Double Maduro Robusto 8/23/15


Appearance 
Dark brown wrapper with a few prominent veins. Cap is a little rough on the edges. Low sheen.

Aroma 
Earthy, chocolatey on the wrapper. Chocolate and raisin at the foot.

Prelight Draw
Black licorice and Cocoa 

1st
The first puffs taste of sweet tobacco. Then a little mild spice(allspice) arrives. Draw is good, burn is off by 11 degrees. Ash is mostly light gray and slightly flaky. Cocoa notes help balance the blend. 

2nd
Starts off with woody notes. The flavors blend together nicely. 1/2 way thru the 2nd/3rd the burn has fully self corrected. The strength has been a solid medium from the start. The spice becoming more of a crushed red pepper by the end of the 2nd/3rd. 

Final/3rd
Flavors stay the same with the spice being dominant. A very enjoyable smoking experience. Thanks to Rob @TheSmokersHut for the samples for review. GoGetchasome™!!
