Putting The Maria Lucia By Luciano Cigars To The Test

Luciano Cigars · Robusto

Tasting notes

First third

Deep earth, rich espresso beans, and dark cocoa.

Second third

Creamy cedar, leather, and a transition from dark cocoa to a sweeter milk chocolate.

Final third

Charred oak, roasted nuts, and a return of deep espresso.

Burn: excellent to highly reliable

Draw: The draw leans toward a classic, slightly firm resistance. It is not overly tight, but it forces a slower, deliberate puffing cadence.

Construction: : The USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper has a dark, rustic, cocoa-powder hue with a rich, silky coat of natural oils.
