Initial Light
This is not a real torpedo as advertised. I call it a "Conicolito" (little cone) , because that's what it looks like. The cigar is straight-gauge all the way to the last 3/4", then goes to a point at nearly a 45 degree angle. It looks awkward. So I chop it, and begin to light it. Oh no, not another tight stick. Sure enough, it was nearly plugged. I light it, and it's only average.
First 1/3:
Not much here. Kind of mild for a maduro wrapper, but nice aroma, decent flavor.
Second 1/3:
No change.
Final 1/3:
No change.
