When I first lit this, my 1,000th review cigar, I was not
excited with the first draws. The Scotch is now actually a little too strong
for this aged beauty and the spice just drew out the pepper in the stick with
non-plus flavors. Then the RH's and
phenomenal aroma kicked in and I knew I had made the right choice to celebrate
this auspicious occasion! What a great
cigar! Age just makes it better and
better. Kudos to Don Antonio and Dan
Pepin for the recommendation. Congrats to both of you as you are the winners of the Don Ricardo Millennial Aged
Cigar Contest.
Happy Smoking
Don Ricardo
