Lovo Magnum Twist

My first cigar shop visit here was Lovo cigars on the strip and I struck fucking gold. I purchased a few sticks from them and this Magnum was the first smoke, and my god is a good.

This is one all-around smooth cigar. The draw is clean and just right. The taste is mild and very well balanced with no one particular overpowering taste. I tasted chocolate and milky-cream with a nice combination of tobacco, minus any harshness or woodyness usually present with a tobacco taste. There’s no bitter, spicy or peppery notes at all. It remained enjoyable consistent from first light to the end. The aroma was equally smooth and creamy, with some other scents that I couldn’t recognize but nevertheless kept me entertained in discovering. This happily isn’t a one-trick stick!

I went back and bought 5 more, and the gentleman there gave me a 6th for free. Awesome! I also picked up a tri-flame lighter which he filled at purchase, since I could not bring any of my lighters on the plane. Can’t beat that price.

I great cigar which I’m looking forward to storing the current batch and aging, but I will definitely order a box in the near future after this trip.
