Oliva Serie V Lancero

This is a well constructed cigar sporting a sun grown habano wrapper and ligero filler.  The lancero vitola allows you to enjoy all the flavor the wrapper has to offer.  This cigar boasts an excellent blend of wood, spice and slight chocolate flavors; I also picked up a bit of pecan and other nuts, as well as hints of coffee in the final third.  The draw is somewhat tight but burn is nice and even, and the 7″ length gives you a lot of enjoyment for only $5.

Partagas (Black Label) Prontos

The Pronto from Partagas is a very well constructed small cigar with a dark natural wrapper.  They are sold in tins of 6 for $10-14 and last upwards of 40 minutes despite their diminutive size.  Flavors are rich tobacco and earthiness with a sweet aroma.  The cigar packs a punch with powerful ligero tobacco leading to a full body smoke.  Burn was good and the ash was extremely light grey.   A great way to spend your lunch break.
