Date of enjoyment: 4/15/2007
Cigar: Trinidad Reyes
Ring gauge and length: 40 x 4-3/8
Year: 2005
Drink: Coffee; Mokka Java w/milk and splenda

Apprence; cocoa brown with a light sheen and no veins. Pigtail cap and firm in hand. Pre light draw was easy and spicy.

First Third: Right off the bat lots of flavor and very full bodied. Nutty and some hints of cocoa and toasty. The smoke coats my whole mouth. Not bitter of green tasting at all. This is going to be a fun stick.
Second third; Starting to mellow out and changes to a citrusy flavor, but still pretty toasty. Not as intense of a flavor but still very good.
Last third: Going back and forth with the citrus and the nutty flavors. The body is a little mellower than before, but this is probably because my pull is pretty light as the cigar is almost done.

The draw was perfect along with the burn. I didn't even have to pay attention to this cigar it was burning so well. This is one of the best smokes I have had all year.

5 out of 6 smoke rings
 
Thanks for the review! I'm gonna have to order me a few of those.
 
I love that cigar - 4 out of 5 however from my box have been pretty plugged - but barely smoke-able...Damn good when they're smoking well though!
 
That's a fantastic cigar. I love the pigtail cap. Lots of rich flavors. My only complaint: too small.

Its a reason why I like it a lot. I am finding that I like cigars of that size a lot more lately. mostly due tot he fact that I don't have a lot of time to smoke. I also smoke slow, so a cigar of that size can last me for an hour.
