Tatuaje Havana VI Verocu No 3 Cigar Review

This 6x46 stick features a dark chocolate firmly packed toothy, oily wrapper with minimal veins, tight invisible seams, large double cap and faint musty cocoa aroma. First light reveals a medium-full body with complex flavors of a slightly sweet chocolate with a smooth oily slick followed by a dry pepper and spice buildup on the long finish. The first third grows to a decadent smooth rich cocoa and leather with the building pepper and spice joining the finish, dropping the dryness. The 1/2 way point comes at 30 minutes with perfect construction while flavors change slightly. The cocoa pepper and spice are subdued a bit and the leather really takes over but everything is still packed full of flavor. The last third ends at 1:05 to the nub with notes going to a deep earth and just a flavor of pepper left, body down to medium.
