El Mejor Emerald

El Mejor EmeraldThis cigar had a medium to full flavor. I believe that I still have over humidified my humidor and it made this cigar tough to draw. Not a bad smoke, although I found it a tad harsh. I only smoked 1/2 of it and placed the second 1/2 in the garage.


From Cigars International:

The Emerald is composed of a deep, dense mixture of Nicaraguan long-fillers including a core of rich, searing Ligero tobaccos. These tobaccos are in turn cloaked by a tawny, lustrous Honduran-grown Corojo wrapper and together, after 6 months of box-aging, this formulation delivers a copious dose of rich, oaky flavors which swathes the palate before finishing with a feisty touch of spice. Medium to full-bodied throughout with a rich tobacco taste, it smokes gracefully smooth from start to finish. El Mejor Emerald is terrific right out of the box without a doubt, but also shows all the signs of incredible aging potential. Individually draped in cedar sleeves and finished with a ‘shaggy’ foot in true ‘old world’ fashion.
