Default Sancho Panza Double Maduro LaMancha

Sorry, no pics (other than my avatar). I picked up a box of these to try out as a decent, cheap everyday smoke. I went ahead and tried one OTT.

Humidor time: None (I may update this thread after I've aged the others)

Prelight: The wrapper has a nice, dark color to it, slightly oily. Prelight draw is nice, earthy with a bit of sweetness. The band is a simple gold with the brand name.

Burn: This cigar lit nicely, slightly uneven but corrected itself within the first inch. Ash was nice and firm and held on for at least an inch and a half before I tapped it off. Draw was easy, not loose, and the burn time was just a bit over 45 mins.

Flavor: I thought this cigar was very smooth. It had a slight chocolate taste to it, with hints of spice and coffee at different points. Full-flavored, but not overpowering.

Summary: I definitely enjoyed this smoke, a decent cigar for the price. I think these will have a regular spot in my humidor.
