81463 Zino Platinum Scepter Grand Master. After the Camacho I wanted to grab a better Davidoff n friends. Recently had an Avo, so I decided to dip into these.
Golden brown CT shade wrapper with minimal veins and a dull sheen. Probably not the best thing to grab after that full power pepperbomb I just was smoking but whatever, I like a good Connie.
[u]First light is Delta1's buttered shortbread.[/u] And that continues through the first ash drop. The aroma is pleasant. The texture mildly creamy but not as rich as I was hoping, maybe it will build. Bready, sweet nuts, butter, a slight mineral note on the finish. Maybe even cubanesque.
A little more cedar and spice come up and play nicely with the sweet notes. Burn is perfect. Body is pretty thin. Texture could be richer.my A&W cream soda is helping but I think the Camacho is hurting this one with residuals.
After the halfway point this baby turned on me. It moved. Turned the spice up big time, and brought more butter rich texture that lasts. More minerally finish, more smoke, more sweetness to balance more spice. I'm loving it.
Overall an excellent cigar. In the same lane as other good Davidoff I've had.
