CI Legends Copper Label

A great smelling stick from Drew Estate for the Cigars International Legends line, imminently smelling of rich chocolate before light.

The tip has a sugary-coated nom-nom-nom flavor to it, so unfortunately, some of the taste is masked. There is a peppery taste that is ever present and quite mild, however.

The site’s description notes this has an Amaretto quality to it and I completely agree. The aroma is breathtakingly sweet with some other notes of nuts and butter. This will make you hungry! The nice thick smoke emitting from this cigar will sure to be a crowd pleaser as it delivers it’s heavenly sweetness.

The draw is very smooth, and complements the overall enjoyablility of this cigar. The aroma is very attractive, but not quite adventurous. It’s still a great cigar and worthy of a 5-pack. But note, it will infect other sticks in a humidor, so probably best kept to themselves or in an infused box. A really good treat for the sweet tooth!
