Cigar Review for La Galera Maduro Pegador
My Review
Starting off with a lot of flavor and a great job. The construction seems very good and the flavors and a lot of wood in them.
A lot of spice and pepper, I think. Looking forward to see how this develops.
14 minutes in, still at the very beginning, I'm starting to get a little more roasted notes. A little bit more of a caramelized flavor to it. It's already improved.
The further down the cigar I get, the more deep the flavors get. I would highly recommend this, especially for the price. It's probably one of the best $9 cigars I've ever had.
