Cigar Pointe - The Cigar Shop of San Antonio

Viaje Skull & Bones MOAB Review

The pine taste is still apparent, but is now masked by many other things. A peppery taste, similar to a jalapeño has also been added to the mix. At this point I’m enjoying the overall flavor a lot more than the first third. The retrohale is still quite spicy, but has smoothed out to the point where it will be enjoyable for most people.

Litto Gomez Small Batch No 3 Review

This is my third one, and they have all been great. Not just great, amazing. Any cigar that can be consistently amazing is quite a feat in my book. I don’t know that I would consider this cigar very complex, but it’s the same delicious flavors that remain constant through the entire smoke (which is what I’ve experienced with a lot of high quality La Flor cigars).

La Riqueza Cabinet Selection No. 2 Review

The cigar starts out very unique and complex. I’m getting almost a minty and extremely spicy but not peppery spice. I almost ger a little mace (the spice) and allspice. The finish after each puff is an extremely long clean finish, very tasty mmmmmm. I can even notice the flavor of the cigar on my lips and it’s a nice flavor.
