Smoking Notes:

Before lighting up

At cold, the wrapper emanates some sweet flavors. There are some notes of leather and of chocolate, with some hints of wood. The pre-light draw gives some sweet and smooth flavors, there is also some white pepper notes. The wrapper leaves some saltiness on the lips.

Burn/ Draw

Once the cap has been cut-off, the Magnum 56 LE offers a perfect draw, which remains great throughout. The burn line is fine and even if it is a bit wavy at times, it doesn’t require attention. The smoke that goes out from the cigar is rich and creamy.

Initial third:

The first third of the cigar is dominated by rich and musky flavors. The leather is predominant while there are also some notes of earth, of roasted nuts and roasted bread. The cigar is creamy and rich, the flavors are round and balanced. There is some creaminess, spiciness from white pepper, some “smoked“ and very musky notes. The body of the cigar is at a medium level for the first third.

Middle third:

In the middle third, the strength ramps up, reaching now a medium-full body. In terms of flavors, the leather becomes predominant, but there is also the appearance of some flavors of roasted coffee beans and of nuts. There are also some sweet notes of roasted nuts, melted butter and of grilled steak. The spices are still powerful but overall the cigar is well balanced and delicious.

Final third:

In the final third, the flavor profile doesn’t evolve much, it is becoming slightly more powerful, almost a full body at this point. The finish is stronger too, but there is neither bitterness nor sourness. The spiciness is also more pronounced. The cigar doesn’t burn too hot and can be smoked until the nub.

In summary, despite being a young cigar, it is already a great powerful smoke of toasty flavors.

Smoking time:

1 Hour – 1 Hour 30 Minutes
