Overall Experience:
This is another wine barrel aged tobacco smoke from El Artista Cigars, which is a nice treat. The fruit notes definitely add plenty of depth to the cigar when intermingled with the chocolate and spice. This is a really nice change of pace cigar for those of you who want something just a little different on a given night.
