Experience
The Yayo by Traficante is my kind of flavor profile. It brings forward notes of coffee and chocolate in a mocha-esque blend right out of the gate. It is backed up with notes of leather, black tea, and a lime-like citrus. What I found most interesting about this smoke was that I kept going back to make notes. I would think I knew what was going on and then it would hit me with something else. This is a really enjoyable cigar. The flavors are well balanced and they each get their own time to shine. I would like to try this in a slightly smaller ring gauge at some point.
Pairing
Gin and tonic would bring out the citrus note. Black coffee.
