Quick Smoke: Bucanero Cañon Cubano Maduro
9 Mar 2008
Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
Big, black, and bold, this five and ½ inch by 60 ring gauge Bucanero behemoth packs rich, textured flavors of dark chocolate and burning timber. The Nicaraguan, Honduran, Italian, and Costa Rican blend is full-bodied and well-balanced. With decent construction – including a fairly even burn for its large girth – I can recommend this at $7 a pop.
Verdict = Buy.

A blend with Italian leaf? Interesting… 60 ring gauge is definitely big boys only territory.
