Ave Maria Crusader Cigar Review

This 5x52 stick features a dark brown slightly mottled wrapper with a rock solid pack, minimal veins, tight invisible seams, large double cap, soft silky feel and sweet cocoa aroma. First light reveals a mild-medium body with flavors of a soft smooth light earth and bakers chocolate going deep in to the finish. The first third quickly shifts to a medium body with a hint of coffee just on the draw while the bakers chocolate goes to a sweeter cocoa still dominating. The 1/2 way point comes at 30 minutes with perfect performance and a razor sharp burn. Flavors remain the same. Ending at 55 minutes the last third had no further changes.
