CH CHC Serie E Hermoso No.2

CHC Serie E Hermoso No.2: the cold draw reveals scents of milk chocolate. The opening delivers earthy notes to the palate with a roasted touch.

CH CHC Serie E Hermoso No.2

The first third brings notes of green pepper, a vegetal touch, and wood resin to the palate. In the background, there is a rich aroma of mushrooms. The smoke is creamy, and the strength is medium-full (4/5).

In the middle third, the wood resin is confirmed with the spices that now turn to black pepper. A rich note of leather also joins the flavor profile, and the strength is confirmed (4/5).

The final third turns to balsamic notes, together with some vegetal nuances. The spices are still present but in a way more contained way and only in the background. The strength doesn’t change (4/5).

Overall, the CHC Serie E Hermoso No.2 is an intense cigar that develops an evolutive, creamy, rich smoke. The puffs are smooth, and the intensity is nice.
