The Fonseca Cosaco, like all Fonseca, is wrapped in a beautiful white tissue paper with the gold Fonseca band on it. Once the band opened, the white tissue paper reveals a well-rolled cigar which wrapper has a nice dark brown (Maduro) color. There is a nice sheen of oil on it, the cigar is very smooth, and there are few tiny veins on the surface. The packing of the cigar is even and well done, the triple cap, typical Fonseca, is flat and blunt shaped. There is no hard spot on the cigar, just enough give between the fingers.

Smoking Notes:

Before lighting up

The wrapper smells of sweet tobacco, some light hay. Once cut, very easily by the way, there is also some spice on the nose. The cold draw gives some chocolate, sweet tea, some wood and a hint of flowers.

Burn/ Draw

The draw is flawless right away, lighting the cigar is fine. With the first puffs rich flavors come to the palate, some toasted nuts, vanilla and some floral characteristics. It starts off very smoothly, the burn line is clean and even and each puff releases a generous amount of white smoke.

Initial third:

The cigar starts off with mild strength flavors, aromas of tea, spices, wood and leather. The flavors are rich, smooth with a bit of sweetness from flowers and chocolate. The finish is long. The strength of the cigar increases as the cigar goes, the burn line is sharp and a nice gray ash is building up on the foot.

Middle third:

In the middle third, the strength of the cigar picks up, and it is now definitely a medium body, the flavors are still very rich and delicate. The tea faded, leaving more space for chocolate, coffee, vanilla, earth, toasted nuts and hints of wood. The finish is still long and herbaceous.

Final third:

In the final third, the flavors are still amazingly rich, with still lots of nuts, wood, earth and pepper. The finish is spicy, with lots of barnyard, wood, and roasted coffee, roasted nuts and toast. The body is well in the medium range, and the draw continues to be perfect until the end.

In summary, it is a very enjoyable smoke that has very rich flavors and a medium body.
