Santos de Miami Lancero Single Cigar [CL030718]

Santos de Miami Lancero Single Cigar It is easy to roll your eyes when you hear of another boutique cigar company and small batch cigars, but Jameson Cigar Company's Santos De Miami Lancero is the real deal. This is an amazing Dominican puro consisting of fine-aged Dominican Corojo and Criollo filler, a Dominican Corojo '98 binder, and a Dominican Corojo wrapper. If you like square pressed cigars, you will be hard fought to find one that is more rigid than this one. Santos De Miami is a fantastic 7" x 38 mild-to-medium-bodied cigar. With an art deco band adorned in the colors you associate with Miami, the first thing you will notice is not the beautiful design but how square this cigar is. Almost like a candy bar, you will marvel at the construction. Despite lacking any pre-light aroma, the flavor is bountiful when you take the first draw. A sweet creaminess will overwhelm your taste buds and the relaxing cedar finish will entice you to go on. As the cigar goes into the second and final third, the spice notes will warn your mouth but never overpower an almost bitter dark chocolate flavor. Santos De Miami is an example of what a mild cigar should be. Too often people overlook this profile thinking that it means flavorless, but this couldn't be further from the truth with this stick. a slightly bitter dark cocoa pairs amazingly with an sweet after dinner aperitif. This could go against some of the best in the category like Zino and Davidoff.
