Garbandz will become famous soon enough
Wink Mythos Solitude

This cigar is from Costa Rica,the size is 4x40, a petit corona size. The wrapper is an oily, smooth dark chocolate color,the cigar is firm and very uniformly round.The pre light shows tastes and aromas of rich mature tobaccos,there is a subtle note of espresso on the tongue.The light up produces copious amounts of smoke,the big and bold taste delivers leather,espresso,roots,rich tobacco notes,and the aroma is spicy and musky,very compelling.The palate is full and slightly alkaline,a result of the volcanic soil,and slightly dry.
The intensity builds in the second half,a great taste,exotic aromas that remind me of a cuban Montecristo,the burn is perfect all the way to the nub.
This is a delightful little smoke, surprising body and strength from a small vitola,cool and even burning,I recommend it very highly.....I rate the strength 7 out of 10,overall rating 18 out of 20.
This little treasure is available from Inversiones Tabacom,The firm has plans to market their products in the US,they are currently available in Europe....
