Crowned Heads Juarez OBS
- Size : 4 3/4 x 52
- Strength : Medium
The Juárez starts with an interesting mixture of raisin, earthiness and a touch of bitter cocoa, i.e. none of the flavors from the cold draw. While the start is medium-full, the cigar is pretty quickly full or near full in just about every category. The core mouth flavor is earthiness, pita bread and some lemon sweetness. Retrohales produce a very subtle honeydew-like sweetness that never has a chance to stand out thanks to much the stronger initial flavors and finish. As for the finish, there are a lot of nuts and pine notes and perhaps most importantly, a lot of salivation. Flavor is full, body is medium-full and strength is close to full.

I’ll confess this upfront, I love pretty much everything Crowned Heads puts out. From the get go this cigar punches above its weight in terms of price point. The smoke is thick and chewy, exactly what you want from a medium/full smoke. It starts off earthy, with some cacao and creaminess and continues on that way with some added sweetness. The ending is where the spice level picks up. Overall loved it and will be ordering more for sure.

Good bold stick, lots of smoke, good draw, but had burn issues. Should be a sub $10 CAD stick in my opinion
