Default Cruzado Dante

Date: 11/12/08

Cigar: Cruzado Dante (5 x 48)

Cost: It was part of a 5 pack Cruzado sampler

Drink: Pepsi

Appearance: This has a criollo wrapper on it. It has a pig tail cap. There were no major veins showing. The band is very detailed and old world looking.



Taste of the cigar: This cigar had a citrus flavor to it. I also picked up some cream and nutty tastes. I picked up pepper at the very beginning, but it quickly faded. It is a pretty darn complex cigar.

Construction: Held an average ash. The draw was decent. The cigar required a few touchups.

Strength: This was a medium-full cigar with it being more on the medium side.

Summary: This cigar was pretty good. I want to see what the other sizes taste like. I give it a 7.5/10.

That's a nice looking cigar, and a nice description too. Can you tell us the tobacco used in wrapper, binder and filler?

From NewHavanaCigars.com: "A Nicaraguan Criollo wrapper encases the blend of Nicaraguan and Honduran tobacco."

You can never have too many cigars, they are like an investment in good times.
