Quintero Londres Cigar - 1 Single

For what it is - an ancient machine-made petit corona - these are lovely little cigars. They still have some real strength and spice to them, and given the inferior short filler blend the age has given them some little hints of complexity and a nice creaminess. Plenty of toasty earth and spice with some cedar and herbal hints along with a little of that well aged Cuban tobacco mustiness. There is a faint vegetal taste in the background, often found in short-filler, but it's not too prominent. Enjoyable with an espresso, they burn well and quite quickly with an easy draw.
