El Septimo Cigars Michelangelo (5-1/2x50) At the beginning of the century, El Septimo launched a life-long project: to move away from tradition that limits the quality of the world’s most important brands, and instead offer consumers something new: the best cigars in the world, developed by cigar connoisseurs and master blenders. An attractive perfecto with an oily cover leaf. Strong and spicy first puffs take on touches of minerals and leather but the flavors are overpowered by a persistent charry note of burnt coffee that lingers on the finish. The burn is mostly even and there is a bit of resistance on the draw.
