JM's Dominican Cigars Maduro in Review

FORMAT: Robusto (pre-punch-cut)

INTENSITY: Medium

NOTES:
Leather | Bitter chocolate | Black licorice

Kicky-tangy front-end smooths maybe rounds into spitty-sharp muddledness. Light-weight leathery dry-oil body. Bitter waxy chocolate & black licorice take turns. A vaguery of hot sauce. Cedar, maybe thin molasses. Baking spice. Balance isn't the issue--the dark-sharp melange is; as is the piercingly-pungent room-note. Performs well, save for a stingy draw.
