Padilla Miami 91.76

As usual, Padilla cigars live up to their reputation.  I enjoyed this one, however it did lose a little flavor at the end.  Was a nice enjoyable smoke with an aroma that was commented on by people around me.

Here are some specs from cigars international site:
Behold, the 94-rated masterpiece from Ernesto Padilla.
The Miami has turned the industry upside down. Hand-crafted in exceedingly limited quantities, this cigar has been named one of the top 50 cigars in the world to accompany a handful of 90+ ratings.
The blend is extraordinary. Each leaf of tobacco hails from the dark, fertile soils of Nicaragua and is grown from 1st generation Cuban seeds. The wrapper is a dark, reddish-hued Corojo. The filler, a robust mixture of Criollo and Corojo tobaccos. Three caps are applied to the head of this cigar in true Cuban fashion. Production is low and costs are high, yielding a very low number of cigars each year. But those that are produced are exemplary. Toasty hints of wood, cocoa and coffee smack your taste buds at various points throughout the smoke, while each is finished by a peppery aftertaste that coats the palate like syrup. Extremely complex and masterfully balanced, the Padila Miami is truly one of the finest cigars made today and re-establishes the hand-rolled cigar as a work of art.
