Marrero Fuerte Cigar Review

This 5.5x54 box pressed stick features a dark brown mottled wrapper with an extremely oily butter soft feel, minimal veins, tight invisible seams, large double cap and rich deep hay aroma. First light reveals a perfect draw with plentiful medium-full smoke output showing flavors of a deep nutty tobacco, earth and a slight pepper and spice kick through the long full finish. The first third becomes very deep and bold with a rich oily earthy core, creamy texture, touch of sweetness and a pepper and spice combo. The finish holds all the same flavors as the draw all the way to the next puff. The 1/2 way point comes at 30 minutes with good construction and so far no transitions. The ash drops in a solid chunk and there is no kick yet. Ending at 1 hour the last third changed slightly moving to a deep caramel, warm nutty earth and a very deep earthy finish dropping the pepper and spice.
