Notes:

I ordered this cigar at the same time as the Cameroon because I wanted to run the spectrum of the C. A. O. brand. This cigar is really something to look at. The broadleaf wrapper is dark and oily, and the red band set against it gives it a really striking appearance.

Once I lit it up the excitement didn't stop. It burned even and long (probably close to an hour) producing huge clouds of smoke and had a great, full-medium flavor and body. I hate to say it but I actually did taste "hints of chocolate" while I smoked it.

The finish was just slightly warm but very creamy. I really enjoyed it, and though not as strong as some Maduros (such as the Partagas Black Label) I would have to say that this is my current favorite Maduro cigar.
