Aesthetically, it is rolled in a Maduro colored wrapper leaf, that is silky to the touch. The construction is excellent and doesn’t showcase any gaps.
Plasencia Reserva 1898 Corona: unlit, it releases hints of cocoa. The opening unleashes a mix of earth, cocoa, spices of great structure.
The first third continues with cocoa, earthy notes and black pepper. Strength is slightly above medium (3.5/5).
The base becomes slightly sweet. Strength remains constant (3.5/5).
Approaching the finish, the cigar turns on cocoa and honey. Strength grows, taking on a medium – full level (4/5).
From an evolutionary point of view, however, the cigar is rather static, especially in the first two thirds.
