Silencio Serie M Prominentes: The cold draw reveals scents of wood, earth, and spices. The opening brings notes of milk chocolate and wood to the palate, together with a hint of leather.
The first third confirms the earthy and leathery aromas, still accompanied by wood and now also by a vegetal touch. Some light spices, mainly sumac, are in the background. The strength is slightly above medium (3.5/5).
The second third turns to roasted coffee beans enriched by leather and walnut. The strength remains unchanged (3.5/5).
In the last third, leather and coffee are confirmed, now joined by a rich vegetal and balsamic vein in the background, together with hot spices. The strength increases, becoming medium-full (4/5).
Overall, the Silencio Serie M Prominentes exhibits a creamy and smooth smoke. The cigar is elegant and boasts a nice evolution. The flavor profile is balanced and round. It is a fantastic smoke that placed in last year’s awards.
