I had a great smoke today thanks to Homebrewer. It was a well aged, 1 year old Arganese Maduro Presidente, Robusto.
What a fabulous smoke. I'm sure the year of aging did this Maduro some good. It had nice crystals forming on the Brazilian Mata Fina wrapper. The burn line was nice and tight and needed no touch-up's.
The draw was perfect through my Cranial Screw top cut.
From the first draw it was sweet/spicy leather and wood. The second 1/3rd introduced some cinnimon and the sweet/spice was still there. Nice Medium flavor/strength.
The final 1/3 brought bitter chocolate into the mix with the other flavors still in the background. At this point it grew into a Med-Full smoke. It never got bitter and never even thought about going out.
Overall a great smoke!

Thanks again Brian.
