[Pandora]

Curious to know your thoughts on this, is it the lancero? I had a nightmare with one a few days ago, good flavour but fireproof wrapper...

It was the Corona. Sweet on the lips with toffee cream on the cold draw. Very spicy and full of jalapeno peppers at the start. The wrapper had split at the foot but that didn't affect the burn. Mellowed out and got richer towards the middle with notes of oak. The smoke looked beautiful with sinuous threads lingering in the air. The end was a lot milder and creamier. Had it with a strawberry gin and tonic. When I got to the last 1.5cm I got some real burn issues. Like you said, the wrapper seemed fireproof. Overall 4/5 from me. Can't say it will be a regular in my humidor but would smoke it and other vitolas again
