Espinosa y Ortega Cubao No. 5
6 1/8 x 50 ring
Wrapper: Ecuador Sumatra
Binder: Nicaragua / Esteli
Filler: Nicaragua
Info: This cigar comes from the makers of the E O 601. The cigar has 100 percent Nicaragua binder and filler. They are being produced at the Pepin Garcia factory in Nicaragua factory. When the success of the 601, this is a full body smoke.
Appearance: Like most of the Pepin cigars it is an unassuming cigar with a brown and white wrapper. Remember a nice band does not make a good smoke and vice versa. It has a dark wrapper with veins running throughout. Nice firm and tightly packed cigar with no blemish or soft spots.
The Smoke: I pull out my punch and trustee RP blow torch. Initial reaction lots of flavors, peppery and strong. After the first couple of minutes the peppery explosion died down and turned into smooth but with lots of flavor cigar. Quit nice, it took just over an hour to smoke. The cigar kept getting better and better as I smoked it. No harshness or bitter after taste.
Review: It is hyped as a full body smoke. I personally thought it was medium to the fuller side. All in all after the first couple minutes of flavor explosion it was a very good stick. By the nub I wanted more but unfortually that was it. I would suggest it to a full body smoker. I will personally be buying a couple more of these to smoke again. Is it a everyday smoke no but it is still a very good smoke.
Rating: 9.0
Price: $7.50 to 8.50
