JNV Maduro Robusto Cigar Review

This 5x52 stick features a dark chocolate firmly packed wrapper with an oily satin feel, minimal veins, tight invisible seams, large double cap and pungent damp earthy cocoa aroma. First light reveals a tight draw with medium bodied smoke output showing flavors of a slight natural sweetness, heavy deep earth, touch of pepper and woodiness with a long finish. The first third improves the draw slightly with the body moving up to medium-full keeping the same complex profile. The 1/2 way point comes at 35 minutes burning very slowly, flavors drop the pepper and go very heavy and damp with the overall same profile. Finishing at 1 hour the last third remained consistent all the way down.
