Quick Smoke: Swag S Maduro Infamous

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.”

 

I’ve been consistently impressed with the smokes from Aging Room/Boutique Blends. The company produces quality, interesting sticks for a fair price. Which is why I was looking forward to trying their new Swag S Maduro, introduced in Las Vegas last summer. The Infamous vitola (6 x 54) features an attractive, toothy, oily maduro Nicaraguan wrapper around Dominican binder and filler. It has roasted flavors, coffee, unsweetened chocolate, and toasted oak, all paired with fantastic construction and medium-bodied notes that go excellently with either coffee or rum.

Verdict = Buy.
