Ave Maria Reconquista

Description

An extraordinary achievement

Reconquista from Ave Maria is a thing of considerable beauty. Spectacular, inside and out. I would comfortably stack this against any medium to full-bodied blend available today....to say Reconquista will compare favorably is an understatement. Gorgeously packed in heavy, giant chests – inside each cigar is individually encased in cedar coffin boxes then laid neatly over a bed of tobacco leaves. As good as this looks, the real juice is unquestionably the blend itself. Reconquista is made in one size only: a stately 7”x54 Torpedo.

This big, yet manageable, vitola optimizes the rich blend of aged tobaccos….a size perfectly tailored to the cigar’s formulation. The wrapper is a dark, toothy Habano Oscuro variety grown in Brazil: thick and oily, sodden with a feisty and voluptuous character. Its filler tobaccos combine rich, well-aged, Cuban-seed, Nicaraguan-grown leaves from Esteli, Condega, and Jalapa. The combination explodes with uniquely rich and dense, finely balanced, and smooth flavors. Hearty notes of espresso, pepper, oak, spices, tobacco, and cocoa lightly dust the palate, leading to a toasty-sweet finish.

Great stick. Good flavor smooth and rich. Good amount of smoke. Very well built coffin packaging. Ash holds well with good color as well. No complaints

For a medium cigar it’s very smooth and the draw is nice. Not overpowering and easy to relax with. This was definitely a good purchase.

This is a med body cigar, not full. Ave Maria is one of the best of the Cigar international owned brands (like Diesel, Man of War). Packaging is luxurious and especially great if you're gifting this cigar. In reality it takes up a lot of space in the humidor so if you are limited in your storage you have to take that into account. Construction is great with a dark toothy wrapper, firm to the touch with a nice cedar aroma. Initial light gave almost a fruity flavor which soon developed into a nice cedar/nut notes. Draw is easy with a great volume of smoke. Ash was loose and chunky, but that is never a real concern of mine. At the halfway point it developed some spice and coffee. Last 3rd was great with additional spice coming in. A good premium cigar, not $21 each though. If you can get into these under $8 or $10ea it's a great stick. If you get them as a gift of course that's even better ;-) I would pair with a light scotch (Oban for instance), sweet bourbon(makers) or a malty beer (a strong smoke in the scotch would overpower this stick).

This is my favorite cigar of all time. The burn is even throughout. The smoke is thick but not overwhelming. The taste on this medium to strong flavored cigar gets better as the cigar burns. When packaged in the coffin the presentation is absolutely fantastic.

expectations were high for these sticks, and it’s certainly a quality crafted cigar - medium to easy draw, lovely wrapper, burns evenly - just didn’t have that WOW factor 🤷‍♂️
