Mi Querida Ancho Largo: Perfection of Art

The Mi Querida Ancho Largo is a cigar from Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust, the boutique cigar company founded by Steve Saka. The Ancho Largo is a cigar that is as beautiful as it is delicious, showcasing the best of Nicaraguan tobacco and expert craftsmanship.

Appearance

Measuring at 6 inches long and with a ring gauge of 52, the Ancho Largo is a medium-sized cigar that is perfect for any occasion. The cigar is beautifully constructed, with a dark and oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper that is silky to the touch. The band design is simple and elegant, featuring gold lettering on a black background.

Lighting

When you first light up the Ancho Largo, you’ll be greeted with a blast of rich, earthy flavors. The Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper provides a sweet and spicy flavor, while the Mexican San Andrés binder adds a touch of earthiness. The Nicaraguan fillers bring a mix of flavors to the table, including pepper, coffee, and chocolate. The result is a complex and satisfying smoke that will keep you coming back for more.

First Third

In the first third of the cigar, you’ll notice a deep, earthy flavor that is accented by notes of cocoa and leather. The smoke is thick and creamy, with a slightly sweet finish that is both satisfying and complex. The burn is even and slow, allowing you to savor the flavors and enjoy the smoking experience.

Second Third

As you move into the second third of the Ancho Largo, the flavors become more pronounced. The pepper notes become more prominent, but are balanced out by a smooth, creamy finish that is accented by hints of coffee and nuts. The cigar remains medium-bodied, but the flavors are well-balanced and never overpowering.

Final Third

In the final third of the cigar, the flavors intensify and become even more complex. The pepper notes become spicier, while the cocoa and coffee notes become more pronounced. The smoke becomes thicker and more velvety, and the finish is long and satisfying. The cigar remains medium-bodied throughout, but the flavors are well-balanced and never overwhelming.

One of the standout features of the Ancho Largo is the construction. The cigar is well-made and burns evenly, with a sturdy ash that holds on for quite some time. The draw is smooth and effortless, allowing you to enjoy the flavors without any resistance or harshness.

Another notable aspect of the Ancho Largo is the strength. This is a cigar that is perfect for those who prefer a medium-bodied smoke that is smooth and flavorful.
