Casa Magna Colorado Toro

Picked up this great Nicaraguan stick from local shop Celebrity Tobacco & Gifts in Oakville.  It came on high recommendation from the shop owner and Cigar Aficionado.  Measured a little fatter than your average toro, more like a double robusto really.  A firm, milk chocolate coloured wrapper, almost liver like with minimal seams and veins, I straight cut this puro and lit up without a cold draw. This cigar was packed with flavour, but offered very little in the way of transition: the profile didn't stray very much.  This is not necessarily a bad thing, especially if your smoke tastes as good as this one did.  Offering up wafts of cedar and toasty cinnamon notes right off the bat, and developing into a smooth coffee and cocoa dominated smoke after the initial bite died off.  It was medium bodied and provided a pretty good wallop of nicotine, plumes of whitish smoke and a saline mouthfeel.  Really satisfied with this one, exceptional construction that burned well through the whole stick, and a tasty flavour profile.
