Great draw on this cigar. The first third is wood (maybe oak) and mild spice. Difficult to describe flavor changes moving into the second third. Still tasting spice, but also getting earthy flavors and sweetness. I really like the Encore Majestic, but the Endure may end up being my new favorite from Casa Carrillo. Now in the final third and spice has been consistent throughout. The wood flavor is back. Wish I was a super taster and a better retro haler so I could give a more precise description of the flavors because there were delicate delicious changes I couldn’t identify. Had an early ash fall on the first third, but the Endure held the ash well afterwards. The burn was even the whole way through. Good thing I won a box of these, because I don’t want to put it down. I highly recommend the Endure. It is an excellent cigar.
