Rocky Patel 'Catch 22' Toro. 6x52. Roasted brown wrap with darker shades. Good construction with some veins. Nice straight lines. Good cut and light. Easy draw throughout, pre- and post-light. First half tastes of walnut, roasted dark leaf, earthy exhale. Second half is light wood, mild herbal spice. Burn was somewhat even though it did take some careful turning. Ash was clean and marbled well, light gray with spots of darker ash.
This is a nice smoke. It's well crafted with a smooth draw and decent burn, with a pleasant mild nutty taste with a background faint spice. A good value cigar from a premium cigar maker. Well recommended.
From the company:
"Catch 22 is a well-balanced medium-bodied cigar. A solid earthy core is accompanied with flavors of cocoa as well as a lingering sweetness."
