Default DPG Cuban Classic Robusto

Another bomb stick. I haven't had a bad stick from DPG yet, so I was looking forward to trying this.

Humidor time: 1 week

Prelight: The wrapper looks flawless. Unfortunately, I decided to remove the band before smoking, and it had adhered to the wrapper, causing a slight tear. Draw is moderate, tasting of cedar.

Burn: The burn was decent, a little uneven in spots. Ash was nice and solid. Draw was moderate. Towards the end, the wrapper split all the way up from the tear, but still burned well. The burn time was about 70 minutes.

Flavor: This smoke was creamy, almost buttery, with a nice cedar flavor and mild spicy finish.

Summary: I loved this stick! The wrapper seemed a little fragile, but the flavors were outstanding!
