Nica Libre Exclusivo
Size: 5.5 x 50
Wrapper: San Andres Maduro
Binder: Habano
Filler: Nicaraguan
I must have purchased a sampler pack at the end of 2010 for
I started doing some reviews in February of 2011. I reviewed four of the different sizes but
never this stick – interesting. Click
here to read these reviews: Principe 4.5x46 (didn’t like); Torpedo 6x52 (didn’t
like); Diplomatico 7x50 (not bad); Imperial 6x54 (liked).
I believe I was thinking, ‘why do another boring stick’,
none the less, I placed this last Exclusivo in the ‘bad cigar box.’ Now, it can live to its true potential in the
‘Worst of the Worst Series.’
I am pairing this stick with a cup of Biggby Costa Rica
Coffee. Hopefully the coffee complements
this stick.
Off the Light and First Half: dry dusty soil. As the smoke continues a cheap diner coffee
note develops. This cheap diner coffee
is the kind where they don’t put enough coffee to water ratio. It’s cheap coffee to start with and the cheap
ass diner owner is trying to save a nickel by cutting back on the amount of
coffee grounds that makes a pot. The
mouthfeel is very dry. My strength
rating … I’m going to give it a 4 – mild-medium.
The Pairing: a very good cup of coffee with this cigar will
really help the cheap coffee like quality of this stogie.
Second Half: more of the same; boring dry mouthfeel and taste
with its dry dusty soil that a dandelion couldn’t even grow in and then that
cheap watered down diner coffee. This is
a true classic cheap Nicaraguan cigar.
