E.P. Carrillo Encantos

This Encantos is a 4 7/8" x 50 ring gage, natural wraped cigar from the Core Line from  EP Carrillo's ever growing stable of outstanding cigars.  This particular cigar opens up with a blast of sweet spice.  Loads of vanilla, nutmeg and honey.  The nutmeg becomes the more dominant flavor which tingles the palate.  As it progressed I was introduces to some hints of citrus that made the retrohale come alive.  Towards the halfway mark the sweetness subsided a little and some floral notes came on and the citrus which was originally sweet turned more like grapefruit with a pleasant acidic note to it.  Into the final third of the cigar it became more earthy and savory.  Never becoming harsh, the cigar retired with about a half inch left.  I will certainly smoke more of these in the future.
