El Centurion Toro

The El Centurion Toro measures 6 1/4 x 50 with a rich earthy aroma to the smooth, dark tan wrapper. The El Centurion was released previously in 2007, but only releasing around 2,500 boxes. This time, the cigar will be a regular produced cigar, "...this time using four Nicaraguan seed varietals: Criollo, Corojo Habano, Sancti Spiritus, and Criollo 98 for the wrapper." 

When you get the cigar lit up, you get a smooth rush of chocolate/grass flavor with a minty earth on the finish. A strange finish, but still nice. The finish has no overpowering spice, but you can feel it creeping in. Through this point, the cigar has a nice even burn, a snug draw, and good smoke output.

The 2/3's point brings about the same flavors, except the chocolate flavors transitioned to the finish. You'll still get a grassy/moss flavor initially, then a chocolate/spicy finish. The cigar, through this point still has an even burn, good draw, and good smoke output. So far a nice stick.

3/3's to the end looses the earthy/grass flavors and brings in a coffee/chocolate flavor. The chocolate never leaves the cigar, it just transitions back and forth. The spice never made it's entrance, and the finish stayed chocolate/earthy. Another great cigar from My Father Cigars. 

Stogie Rite score: 95
