Cubao No. 3 Lancero

Re visited this today. I remember the one I had last year was very spicy and pretty straight forward for the entire smoke.

After a year this cigar has mellowed to where more flavors can be picked up. Traditional spice in the first several puffs (Pepin).

The 1st 1/3rd was actually pretty mellow with some light woods and a touch of coffee.

The 2nd 1/3 picked up a but with darker coffee, cream, and a slight sweetness in the back ground.

The last 3rd is where more of these will end up in my humi. The spice has gone to the background with a very sweet chocolate flavor up front.

The construction and draw were exactly how I like them with a little resistance which I think increases smoke volume (Very dense smoke on this cigar) and flavor.
