EP Carrillo Dark Rituals Toro Cigar Review

This 6x52 stick features a very dark chocolate firmly packed thick wrapper with medium veins, tight visible seams, sloppy double cap, oily toothy texture and faint cocoa and earth aroma. First light reveals a very snug draw, almost unsmokeable but putting off plentiful mid-medium bodied smoke with flavors of a soft earth and vanilla with a very short clean finish. The first third continues the same poor performance and low body. Hitting the 1/2 way point 35 minutes in, the ash drops in a solid 1/3rd chunk, the draw marginally improves but flavors change very little just adding a soft milk chocolate to the mix. Ending just over an hour where it got warm and very squishy, the last third showed no changes.
