The La Aroma de Cuba EE (Edicion Especial) No. 3 toro measures 6x50 with a smooth, dark tan, Ecuadorian wrapper that has a very rich earthy aroma. The cigar features Nicaraguan binders and fillers, and a very nice looking band. Now that we have the basic information down, let's get it lit up.
When you get the cigar lit up you get a very toasty, but sweet, rich soil flavor. On the finish you get a lot of cinnamon notes with a very mild spice. I've never picked up cinnamon in a cigar, so it was something new. The construction is flawless, accompanied by a very even burn, perfect draw, and great smoke output.
The 2/3's point brings a little change. The soil drops off leaving you with a tobacco/earthy flavor. The finish keeps the cinnamon, but the spice is intensifying. The burn has become a little uneven, but the draw is still perfect, and it's still producing a lot of smoke. A great stick through this point.
3/3's to the end doesn't bring many changes. The flavors are still very earthy mixed with the cinnamon on the finish. No spice at this point. The burn has evened itself out, the draw stays perfect throughout the whole smoke, and it produces a good amount of smoke. Running around $7, I highly recommend picking this cigar up sometime. Very enjoyable.
Stogie Rite score: 97
