Fonseca no band toro cigar review

I wish I was writing this review and 1,000's of people would be like yeah I remember those. I bet nobody remembers these from like 15 years ago. You could only find these as part of a sample pack of like 20 to cigars for like $30. I don't think it was 4 different cigars x 5.  2 of them were like a $4 smoke when you buy a box, one was like $3 and this one which was never really sold except for like a special throw in deal. 

I remember these as mild to medium with a little bit to it like a typical Dominican.  

Before lighting it up I notice how heavy and dense it is. 

For a 15+ year old cigar it is burning great. It is pretty mild. 

Now I remember these.  It's better now. It has a green tea and grassy taste.  Imagine a very strong candela. When they were green it wasn't good, but I remember they got better with age.  This one is good. It is really medium with mild flavorss.  I'd say all Dominican tobacco. Not like any other country. If you remember the good mild Dominican cigars from like 20 years sgo, this is a great reminder. 

It a great mild and interesting smoke. Always leaves a nice sweet flavor on my pallet. 

I'm going to just enjoy the 2nd half as it is now developing a little spice and cedar. Still super mild but full of flavors that are strong when puffing and then go away. It leaves a mild aftertaste.  It's a great mild smoke.
