CREMO cigar Intrepidus review

As a follow up to the new line by CREMO cigars i will be reviewing the toro size Intrepidus. this size vitola is the next larger size in this line.

1. 1 PRE LIGHT; the parejo shaped Intrepidus size has a smooth habano wrapper that is flawless and chocolate in color.There is a good heft to this cigar and is well packed with tobacco.The entubar rolling is evident in the foot.
2. FIRST THIRD;on lighting the foot there is a pleasant medium flavor of of spice and sweet tobacco. about an Inch into this smoke i noticed a slight ramping up of  flavors with an introduction of chocolate, pepper and toast.This ramping up of flavor continued into the second third.
3. Second third;This vitola began a steady increase in flavor,the spice giving way to pepper and strong but sweet tobacco flavor with a rich cocoa tone.During this second third, the flavors played about from full to medium in flavor and back again; while retaining a medium body through out.I was really enjoying this smoke.
4. THE FINISH; THE  play of full to medium flavor continued about till the nub and was a very pleasant smoke; having a depth of flavor and a long finish.The body stayed medium, the ash stayed tight and didn't fall off till about 4 inches in from the foot.

There is a term used by blenders called depth of flavor perception.The Intrepidus fulfills this term.The play of flavors was a nice surprise and is what a really good cigar should be. In short I smoked the hell out of this cigar.Given the size and ring gauge (see previous posts)the blenders art is well showcased in this size.I can say with out reservation that come January this one will be on my radar to buy.I have no hesitation in recommending this cigar and giving one to a friend,but you had better be a damned good friend for me to part with one. :)  In the next installment I will touch on this line as a whole based on the two sizes I have smoked.
