Cigar: Carlos Torano Virtuoso
Size: 4 3/4 x 52 Robusto
Wrapper: Nicaraguan Colorado Maduro Shade
Rating: 8
Today I decided to indulge a little earlier than the weekend. After working a day shift to attend some training at work, I relaxed on my porch, lit up this fine cigar and opened a bottle of Stone Levitation.
This cigar has also been in my box for well over a year, and it is the first time that I have smoked one. At first light it was a little weak, but after a half dozen puffs it began to improve. Different from my last cigar it started with a soothing wood taste and finished with a curious but nice minty/peppery taste. The finish was much better than the beginning, and I smoked it all the way down until it was too hot to hold. As it goes with most Carlos Torano cigars, this one is definitely one to keep in your box.
Since I picked this one up to give it a try, I will have to pick up a couple more to throw in my humidor.

You have me curious now as to whether or not I have smoked one of these sticks. You hit the nail on the head about the Torano brand...they are never a bad choice. I'm off to investigate my boxes in search of that stick.
