Tasting notes
The PDR Capa Natural (Shade Grown) Magnum, with its generous dimensions of 152.4 mm (6") in length and 23.8 mm (⅞") in diameter, presents itself with a radiant wrapper. Its Ecuadorian wrapper is smooth and captivates with its sheen. Upon handling, the silky texture of the cigar promises a refined experience.
At first contact, the aromas reveal themselves during the pre-light: a subtle bitterness accompanies notes of fruit and herbs. Upon lighting, the scents intensify with hints of coffee and cedar, quickly giving way to a more complex olfactory palette. Floral and herbal notes establish themselves, creating a beautiful depth.
On the palate, the development is harmonious, beginning with fruity notes. In the first third, the sweetness of coffee and the finesse of the herbs blend harmoniously. Gradually, aromas of chocolate and pepper invite themselves, bringing complexity and balance. The final third reveals a bit more intensity, showcasing earthy and spicy nuances while maintaining a pleasant sweetness.
The finish, of medium length, leaves a soft and slightly bitter sensation that lingers. The balance between strength and sweetness is precious, making this Capa Natural unique in its ability to fascinate without ever overwhelming the senses. It is a beautiful option for those seeking a refined experience.
Ideal for the evening, this PDR pairs well with a sweet fruit cocktail or a light bourbon, offering a pleasant moment of relaxation for an evening among friends.
