Wrapper: Broadleaf

Sinistro is two young guys. James, the blender, and Coleman, the muscle. These guys do everything together. James lives most of the year in the Dominican Republic where he recently had his first child. Coleman lives in Pittsburgh (shout out!) where he runs the distribution. I often joke with them about their relationship. I like to bust their chops and they are good sports of course. But I was going through their portfolio of blends and band art about a year ago and what did I see? The band you are holding on this cigar. If you know their work, it’s a lot of villain-type stuff. So this really caught my eye. It’s sunny and happy looking. I inquired and they said, “oh you can’t have that. That’s our cigar.” I said “what do you mean?” and he began to tell me that he and Coleman have their own “friendship” cigar. They only smoke it when they do blending sessions and visits to DR together. Of course, I had to try it, and when I did I knew I had to get it for you guys. With the cost of broadleaf and the argument that ensued to open this up to the club, I worked hard to obtain this. I hope you love it!

Description

Tasting Notes: Barnyard. Esthers. Teriyaki sauce. On the body, slight teriyaki, and slightly roasted peanut on the foot. For this one, you must cut the cap deeper than usual. The cold draw is aged cedar, maybe toast. Slight cocoa and slight rich tobacco sweetness. The first third is smooth, sweet, chocolatey, meaty, umami, with a slight white pepper finish. Oh, y’all are gonna like this. There’s a dryer sheet fragrance most people would call floral. Charred cedar, sweet cream, white pepper turning slightly black. I’m getting meaty teriyaki, chocolate, sweet cream, white pepper that gets horseradish creamy, umami and charred woods, stronger white pepper, and slight mineral earth on the retro. There’s just something about this one… it’s teriyaki meaty and sweet, creamy as all heck, just enough spice to stimulate the palate, and then I get this extremely satisfying chocolate or umami…it does remind me of roasted nuts and black coffee as well. And then there is a hazelnut that enters the scene on the retrohale. The second third brings sweet cream with an apricot twang, white pepper, charred wood, dark roasted nuts, black coffee, both in flavor and acidity, and white pepper and charred wood in retro. A leaves and apple cider kind of sensation on the finish. Slight cocoa, but there is also something in the wood that reminds me of natural vanilla. Dried herbs like rosemary, with florals and cocoa getting heavy at times. On the final third, retro has picked up horseradish, spice charred wood, and cocoa. it’s got the black coffee flavor and acidity. Still sweet cream and charred cedar, the cider sensation has picked up, now with roasted mixed nuts, florals, and even more coffee. There is volcanic earthiness and minerals, dried herbs, and a wonderful sweet and sour note that I love.

Pairing Notes: Chocolate anything. Egg cream soda. After steak. Jack Daniels. Light roast coffee. After BBQ. Cognac. Dalmore 12. Vanilla pudding. Chinese food.

    Guys…how did you do it?! There’s a group of cigars that people go nuts over with a Broadleaf wrapper, and lemme tell yah, Honchos blows them away. Top 5 for 2021 without a doubt. I love this smoke, and told the Sinistro Boys personally how good it was. I’m saving the other I bought to enjoy with my Crew here in Vegas the next time we get everyone together. Honestly, I can’t believe this hasn’t sold out yet.
