Chinchalero Novillo Fuerte Maduro - 1 Single

If you get a good one of these it can be a quite a spectacular experience, bursting with deep and rich flavours, great smoke output and with a strong saltiness that lingers on the tastebuds. Unfortunately experience has taught me that as many as two out of every three tend to burn terribly unevenly and need to be constantly adjusted - and that's no way to have a relaxing smoke. With reluctance, I won't be ordering more.

a great cigar , smell and look good , will buy it again

I found this to hot and harsh to the palate and nose, also a very uneven burn. I have two more to try but I'll leave them in the dor for a month or two to see if they mellow. I'll post a follow up in October. On the positive they look good and have a lovely smell before lighting, I think that's what made the smoke so disappointing, it promised much but didn't quite deliver.

I don't know if its just me, I was really looking forward to lighting this bad boy and tonight was the night, I cut it and slowly took a few light draws, It seemed good and the over all taste was quite pleasant. I lit the cigar slowly and when I went for the first draw I had to take really deep draws to get any smoke into my mouth. Over all I took maybe 10 draws and the taste was horrendous, Very bitter and not enjoyable at all. I was disappointed as I had the Chinchalero Picadillos Cigar about a week earlier and was very impressed. Im not to sure what went wrong and don't want to shoot down the brand. If anyone maybe has some suggestion as to why it taste so bad I would be very open to know. Maybe just a bad one. At first I though maybe the home made humidor was over humidified but the rest of my cigars I have in there and smoke previously where perfect.

This short powerhouse is full of bold, rich tobacco that fills the mouth with rich smoke. Tastes of leather come through. A good cigar for that long walk or on the golf course.
