I would have called this a perfecto, but the sheet from Joe said it was a toro, so I'll go with that.
Paper and pepper greeted me when I lit this cigar, which for me boded poorly as I hate the paper taste in cigars. Later on the paper was replaced by leather, so it didn't haunt me the entire cigar. As I smoked it, I noticed the presence of nicotine on my lips, but overall the cigar seemed very mild. There wasn't much to the finish.
This cigar must have been past its prime or in a down slope with the aging, because (I'm sorry to say) it was a poor showing. Matasa produces other cigars I've really enjoyed. If I can get my hands on another of these (unlikely), I'll have to try it again to see if this was just a one-off (which happens).
