Don Pepin Garcia

Cuban Classic

The flavor was a bit mild but the aroma is strong. It's one of those cigars that I love because I keep smelling it on my mustache hours after I'm done smoking. I might have to grab a box of these when I see a good deal. It's a go-to for any time of day.

An absolutely fantastic smoke! The flavor profile consists of bold cedar, leather, and well blended black pepper. The retro brings out that pepper without becoming harsh. The draw is open with a ton of smoke, and the burn is fairly decent.

Nice oily, toothy wrapper. Good draw, plenty of creamy smoke right from the start. Sweet, woody (cedar) notes. Slight pepper spice, stronger in the retrohale. In the last third I get coffee and cacao notes, and it gets more full flavored. Great cigar! Box worthy

Flavor was more mild than expected. Draw was not great.

Only my second time in a cigar lounge. Still very much in the learning phase but enjoyed this stick quite a bit. Burns extremely well and paired nicely with a Mac18. I’d certainly get this cigar again.

Nice build, smooth, oily wrapper. Great, steady draw and even burn. Plenty of smoke. Flavorful, spicy but not too much. Enjoyed this cigar a lot.

Got outside a bit later than I was planning tonight but at least I'm smoking a cigar. Nice and spicy/peppery in the retrohale, cedar and leather with a hint of orange peel. Closing in on the first band (about a third in) I'm getting a hint of clove in the aftertaste, which pairs perfectly with my bourbon old fashioned. The flawless burn and draw combine with the great construction to keep the ash stacking, now half the length of the cigar. Down to the final third and the ash is still holding strong, even though I had to put it down a couple times. This is such a fantastic cigar overall and the length of the ash is great representation of how good it is. The ash finally fell with just an inch left on the smoke. With the ash falling off, the orange peel flavor came back strong. Smoked down to the nub. Great smoke!

Round 2 for the afternoon. Definitely a spicier kick than the La Antiguedad. All that My Father flavor with a nice black pepper spice.

Strong and delicious , spicy tabacoo and leathery

Tons of flavor in this one! Black Pepper, Leather and Almond were the most noticeable. Very enjoyable.
