Caldwell The King is Dead Manzanita

The Caldwell The King is Dead Manzanita, a 4-inch by 42 ring gauge Petit Corona, boasts a rich, oily, chocolate-brown wrapper from the Dominican Negrito crop, enveloping a Corojo binder and a carefully selected blend of Dominican tobaccos from the harvests of 2006, 2008, and 2010. As the cigar is lit, it unfurls a bold character, featuring notes of wood, dark chocolate, and a hint of pepper, gradually giving way to flavors of leather and toasted notes, all while maintaining a subtle sweetness that enhances the overall taste experience. The cigar's construction is marked by a silky, dark wrapper, and although the draw is somewhat on the lighter side, the burn is remarkably even, with the ash remaining intact for around 10 minutes. With its medium body, this cigar provides a satisfying and consistent smoke, making it an excellent option for aficionados looking for a full-flavored, compact cigar.
