A counterfeit dominican to round out the line of genuine counterfeits!
This started out very peppery, almost to the point of non-enjoyment to me. However, it eventually mellowed out almost halfway through, letting more earthy flavors come to the front, but always still having a light peppery taste.
The aroma was excellent and not at all like the taste. Caramel, honey, chocolatey, herbal, and just highly enjoyable and not overpowering.
Towards the end, the taste got a bit harsh, but the aroma remained strong. It’s a good cigar I think, may have needed some aging in the humidor to round it out better.
