Siboney Reserve Maduro by @aganorsaleaf review.
Construction: A very soft box press, and the barrel has nice give. Wrapper is milk chocolate brown with very fine tooth.
Draw: Nice and wide open.
Pre-light flavor: Fermented tobacco, sweet cream and leather – along with something else I can’t quite put my finger on.
Toasting & Light: Cedar, dark chocolate and a hint of salt. Base flavors: Cedar, fermented tobacco, dark chocolate.
Retrohale: That’s where you find the spice…
Aroma: Sweet cedar.
Burn & Ash Quality: Ash stacks nicely, with some flake; we’ll call it a “chewy” burn line, like someone went after it with nipping pliers.
Balance of flavors: Not a large number of flavors, but every one gets a turn.
Summary
We start with sturdy tastes up front, primarily wood and dark chocolate – then round out quickly to leather and sweet. Pepper eventually becomes noticeable, but never really establishes itself as a staple of the flavors. If it’s front-loaded, it’s not with the spicy stuff. As for the general tastes, there’s cedar for sure; leather, too. The best way to describe that underlying sweetness is that it’s like what a chocolate chip cookie tastes like when there are no chocolate chips…so I guess that would be brown sugar.
With nice, thick smoke all the way to the end, this is what I’ll call a midday Maduro. Near the end, and Siboney Reserve Maduro just opened up with a burst of strength. So, after you’ve developed a taste for Maduro and you’re ready to explore more, be sure you make a stop here at Siboney.
