Magnum

This cigar has an unusual foot as it is closed by the wrapper with a pig tail at the head. The Magnum is very firm when squeezed and the wrapper smells faintly of tobacco and aged wood.

Amazing amount of spice and pepper in the first third, more so at the end of the first third, especially considering the color of the wrapper and the reputation that the Magnum cigars have for being a milder blend. Dominant flavors are fairly spicy wood, leather, and aged tobacco.

The flavors turn very mild in the second third but pick back up in the last third with a creamier, sweet profile that is quite pleasant, with some caramel at one point. The spice from the first third never returns.

The final smoking time is one hour and 30 minutes.
