This is a very complex medium-bodied cigar. This cigar picks up a nice mix of salt and pepper that combines with the sweet chocolate, dried fruit that I find common in maduro tobacco. The flavors fleet in and out offering several very interesting flavor combinations as follows:

• Hot chocolate
• Pepper cream
• Salt & pepper
• Dried fruit & pepper
• Floral & pepper

The Entrada Toro is a very smooth and well-balanced cigar with no unwanted ammonia or bitterness.
