Welcome to Don Javier Mendoza!
Don Javier Mendoza Montezuma Cañonazo (150mm, 5 7/8″ x 52). Your cigars are beautiful! The wrapper is perfect and so nicely capped. The roll is gorgeous, no hard or soft spots. The aroma is full with chocolate notes. It burns beautifully. The ash is perfect and burns long. The flavour is smooth and full. Perfect draw with a mellow to medium flavour. A nice tasty cigar. Thank you!

Toronto, CanadaDon Javier Mendoza Cahuita Cañonazo (150mm, 5 7/8″ x 52). Beautiful wrapper, just quite fine veins, medium weight. Cold draw is milk chocolate, smoke after ignition is sensational! The roll is tight but perfect! The ash is beautiful, light grey. Cold smoke, mainly cedar in the first third. Towards the end of the first third, the pepper gets a little stronger, especially in the retrohale, but it's not at all intrusive, just enough to bring in the toasted seeds. The ash is incredibly stable. In the second third, the pepper softens, no particular change. Slight hay on the cedar, the burn, the ash, the smell is still perfect! Medium strength, medium body, no unpleasant nicotine. The cedar dominates the third third. The toasted seeds are just in the background, but very pleasant! The smoke is still cool, dry, no heat, no softening on the body. Towards the end it intensifies, quality tobacco flavour, the cedar remains, the seeds and pepper have almost completely disappeared. I really liked it!

Cocles, Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Limon, Costa RicaDon Javier Mendoza Montezuma Tauro Toro (140mm x 56). This cigar is completely my taste. In my opinion, it could go anywhere in the European market. Soft, but excellent smoke volume. In the beginning wood, then nuts and at the and leather dominated. The ash holds, does not burn on the sides, when it does a little bit, it will get even in a little while again. This habano feels like smoking a good Cohiba or Montecristo.
