Nica Libre 1990

Nica Libre I found this to be an awesome smoke, full flavored but mellow. No bite at all. The one issue I had with it was that about 1/4 of the way in it started to burn unevenly. I was unable, or not knowledgeable enough, to correct the burn and it continued to burn uneven to the end. Like my last cigar, this may have been caused by over humidification.

From Cigars International:

Hand-crafted in Nicaragua, Nica Libre is a veritable candy bar. This blend showcases an aged combination of Nicaraguan long-fillers secured within a Habano binder, inside dark and oily, positively resplendent San Andres maduro wrapper. A classic maduro experience: rich, hearty, and silky smooth. Deep notes of coffee and earth smack the palate in balanced fashion, leaving behind a bold, somewhat peppery aftertaste that lingers long on the palate. A hint of dark chocolate is present during the slow burn, completing an eventful and enjoyable medium-bodied cigar. One of the finest values in a Nicaraguan handmade maduro that you’ll find on the market today.
