A 94-rated stunner.
My Father is enchanting from head to toe. The traditional packaging and vitolas represents the roots of old world Cuba, while the blend combines the very best of Nicaragua with a Havana twist. Each leaf in this blend has been hand-selected for optimum aesthetics and flavor. First, you’ll notice the pristine wrapper. A Habano-Rosado leaf grown in the misty valleys of Ecuador. Beautiful and dark in color with an oily sheen and pre-light aroma that’ll make you froth at the mouth, this wrapper conceals a bold, full-bodied mixture of aged Nicaraguan long-fillers grown from Cuban-seed in Esteli. The experience is robust, yet elegant, offering heavy notes of pepper on the palate and through the nose complemented by a touch of nuts and dark espresso. My Father is a complex, medium to full-bodied cigar that’s surprisingly smooth, creamy at times, and ultimately satisfying.
In addition to several 90 and 93-point ratings, My Father received a well-deserved '94,' to complement its spot among the world's 'Top 25 Cigars':"Very well constructed, with an oily wrapper and triple-seam cap. The cigar is immediately rich and meaty, with leather, coffee bean, and a balancing sweetness."
I am fairly certain that God created the tobacco plant so as to enable man to create the My Father robusto. And we smoked, and we saw that it was good.
I was introduced to the My Father at a wedding, and was very impressed; impressed enough to order a box from Cigars International within a day or two after the wedding. I smoked one last night and it confirmed the wisdom of my purchase decision. As others have described, you get a few different flavors as you smoke it, but what stood out to me was how smooth it was. It lit easily and burned evenly, with a very nice wrapper. I will definitely be ordering these again in the future and may even get a box to share at an upcoming bachelor's party weekend. When you find something this good you just want to share it!
Between my fingers at this very moment is a Lancero/Panatela 7.5 x 38. My goodness! Full bodied, yet deliciously smooth and flavorful. The draw is like creamy butter with a finish that is sweet and nutty with a note of espresso. Five Stars! A magnificent experience with a glass of Noval Black Port. :-)
