Cigar: Perdomo Nicks Sticks Little Havana Blend Sun Grown Drink: Coffee Vitola: Torpedo (6.5 x 54) Wrapper: Sun Grown Nicaraguan Binder: Cuban-Seed Nicaraguan Filler: Cuban-Seed Nicaraguan Price: About $4.00 $4.50 Burn Time: 1.5 hours Construction: The wrapper on this cigar has a soft but rough texture to it with very few veins There do seem to be a few bumps and even two little tears in the wrapper The cap is amazingly finished and blends seamlessly into the rest of the wrapper The foot appears full and well packed and the whole cigar has a nice firmness to it but with just the right amount of spring when squeezed The cut was super clean and easy leaving me with a perfect draw Burn: Toasting was very even and easy, its like the cigar wanted to light itself Theres a slight wave as I burn through the first inch but nothing major so far, lets hope it doesnt turn bad The burn is still slightly wavy but its keeping the wave at a good minimum and not causing issues, burn has been good so far Just after I passed the halfway mark the wrapper cracked just below the band, nothing major now Im just hoping it doesnt explode on me The wrapper split didnt get bigger but it did cause a bit of a wonky burn that needed a little correction from my lighter Quick note that I didnt have the spilt problem on any other Nicks Sticks cigars that I smoked in any wrapper Smoke & Ash: There is a ton of smoke coming from every draw on this cigar The resting smoke is equally abundant and giving off a nice campfire type of aroma So far the ash is very clean, very white and holding strong through the first inch The first ash rolled off into the ashtray shortly after the 1 inch mark Each subsequent ash stayed strong just past the one inch mark before I tapped it off The smoke stayed full and thick throughout the entire cigar Tasting Notes: The dry aroma on the wrapper of this cigar definitely shows signs of cocoa and soft tobacco The foot brings forth a ton of woodsiness an a good helping of baking spices Pre-light draw brought more cedar flavors and spices with just a touch of cocoa in there too Initial flavors on the Perdomo Nicks Sticks are cedar, a bit of leather, some baking spices and a touch of earthiness in there too The body is definitely on the mild side with a very smooth woodsy finish The leather and spices seem to have tapered off a bit and Im left with a smooth woodsy cigar with some hints of earthiness and cocoa The retrohale on this cigar brings an interesting spice mix and the finish is smooth and woodsy As I get near the middle of the cigar it seems the body has stepped up a bit to a nice smooth medium The flavors continue to be well balanced and enjoyable despite not changing up a whole lot, there is a nice fresh baked cookie type of flavor appearing now and then The spice is making a nice slow comeback and balancing well with the cedar and earthy notes The flavors really started to pop in the last third, no harshness but a definite spike in the spices and cedar and a touch more body as well Getting a slight coffee flavor in the last third as well thats joining the other flavors nicely Final Thoughts: Im a pretty big Perdomo fan and enjoy a lot of their cigars
