Seeing as this is a redux review, I recommend first reading my Curivari Achilles Legendario Heroicos - Cigar Review post. Up to you. Although a little bit of freedom is a very dangerous thing. Or maybe that's just me. Lettuce have another gander this Curivari Achilles...
KVELL
KVELL
- Draws smooth and even.
- Cap and shoulder stay well-affixed.
- Nice smoke out-put, all-'round.
- Excellent sweet-spice room-note.
- Finish is quite good. Long, sweet/sour spices.
- Balance is a selling-point here.
- Smooth texture with a perfect bissell tingle.
- Smoke is cool temp'd, gate-to-wire.
- Complex to a surprising degree.
KVETCH
- Some softening in spots.
- Loses box press fairly quickly.
- Burn operates on a curve.
- Ash ain't a grower.
- Pacing is rather fast.
- Notes are a bit grassy in 1/3.
