Mas Igneus Toro

Cigar Specifications
Tasting Review
The Mas Igneus Toro opens with a robust medium-to-full-bodied profile, delivering an immediate mix of dark chocolate, espresso, and earthy leather accented by a molasses sweetness that adds depth and richness. Early retrohales bring a lively black pepper spice intertwined with notes of roasted almond, dried fig, and a touch of baking spice, creating an engaging and layered introduction. As the cigar progresses into the second third, the flavors broaden into charred oak, cocoa powder, and caramelized sugar, with the pepper softening into a smooth, integrated backdrop. In the final third, the profile crescendos with concentrated espresso crema, bittersweet chocolate, and a faint anise note, finishing long and satisfying with a harmonious balance of sweetness, spice, and earthiness.

Construction and Draw
Construction is superb, featuring a dark, oily San Andrés Maduro wrapper applied seamlessly over an Ecuadorian binder and a blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers. The Toro vitola is firmly packed yet offers an effortless draw, producing dense, aromatic smoke in generous volumes. The burn line remains sharp and consistent throughout, while the ash forms tight, marbled gray stacks that hold impressively between taps, reflecting the cigar’s precise craftsmanship.
Whisky Pairing Recommendation
A perfect whisky pairing for this cigar is the GlenDronach 18 Year Allardice, whose sherried richness, dried fruit complexity, and warm spice beautifully complement the Toro’s cocoa, espresso, and molasses-driven profile while enhancing its nut and oak nuances.
