Escobar Natural Distinguidos Romeo
- Size: 5 1/2 x 52
- Strength: Medium
Escobar Natural (a.k.a. Habano) Premium Cigars are a hand-crafted medium-to-strong bodied cigar with a perfectly smooth draw and a long lingering finish. They are a blend of three vintage sun-grown and aged Habano tobaccos grown specifically in the rich volcanic soil of Nicaragua. These blended and balanced flavors of the Escobar Cigar are dominated by vanilla and white pepper flavor, dried fruit, cocoa and caramel that sticks strongly to the palate with delicious density, and possesses a persistent earthy flavor of leather and Chinese spices. These flavors are blended to provide the complexity of the Escobar Cigar, thanks to the fermentation and aging process that only Puros Privados offers from generations of skilled Cuban cigar makers.

Picked this up as it was affordable. Had a great night by the fire with my wife and tried to enjoy this. The draw was pretty snug – not horrible, but the burn was uneven. No complexity and ended up with a fairly bland smoke all the way through. Not horrible, but I guess I’d hoped for something better. I’ve smoked a lot of less expensive Nicaraguan cigars that had a lot more character, complexity and soul.

Great cigar, not the best, but enjoyment was there and was happy smoking it. Must try. The draw on mine was very good and burn perfectly. Smoked it after 6 months in my humidor, don’t know if it change something.

An okay smoke. Good draw, even burn. Taste was good, but not much to write home about. No plain packaging was nice. The current price is a little to steep for me ($13.95 as of writing), probably won’t buy again for that reason.

Tight draw, but ok. On the sharp side.

Had this in my humidor for a little over two months. For the first inch, the draw was a little tight and it started unraveling which I fixed by tearing up a small bit of the unraveled leaf. After that I got to 3/4 way and it stated unraveling again, which again I did a small fixed. The burn was good all the way, didn’t have to retouch it. The taste was great but got a little bitter near the end. I’ll have to see if the same goes with the others I have.
