Punch Gran Puro Santa Rita
Origin: Honduras Punch Gran Puro Santa Rita
Size: 4.50 X 52
Wrapper: Natural

From E-Gars:
Punch Gran Puro is all-Honduran with an extra-dark, extra-bold Havana-seed wrapper developed exclusively for this cigar in the rich San Agustin Valley of Honduras. In addition, the binder leaves as well as the wrapper leaves are sun-grown and carefully selected from the highest primings to ensure the cigars’ special color and flavor. The result is the puro of puros--a cigar impossible to imitate.

Notes:

First of all I'd like to say that I love this site I appreciate the candor and the reality of the originators and the reviewers.

This is a sun-grown Honduran puro with a dark oily wrapper. I smoked this with a clean palate and was drinking spring h2o, on the way home from my local smoke shop. After a while I found myself going the long way home because this little guy's flavor and strength (med-full) was screwing with my sense of direction.

Anyway I found myself back at the smoke shop and bought a hand-full for $15. This is a great way to spend an hour. Ash, burn and construction were typical of a punch. Flavor profile was more complex than the Corojo, which I like, and the finish was spicy, not pure pepper, and long. Taste remained consistent from start to finish, this is a nubber. I am most impressed with the price. in the $3 range for me this one is hard to beat.
Thanks guys.
