Te Amo Magnum

Cigar Specifications
Tasting Review
The Te Amo Magnum opens with a medium body, delivering a rustic mix of sweet cedar, toasted almond, and earthy cocoa over a base of leather, black pepper, and barnyard spice. The retrohale adds white pepper, nutmeg, and a touch of dried hay, giving the profile warmth and a grounded, old-world character. By the second third, the flavors broaden into molasses, roasted peanut, and soft caramel, while the pepper smooths into a gentle, lingering undertone. A faint herbal sweetness emerges, tying the cedar, cocoa, and spice into a cohesive mid-palate. In the final third, the cigar deepens into bittersweet chocolate, toasted oak, mild espresso, and a trace of clove, finishing long, warm, and slightly sweet with an earthy backbone.

Construction and Draw
The magnum vitola is skillfully rolled with a San Andrés wrapper over a San Andrés binder and a blend of Mexican fillers, showing tight seams, a clean cap, and a firm yet workable pack. Cold draw reveals cedar, cocoa husk, and a touch of black pepper. Upon lighting, the draw is ideal—slight resistance producing dense, flavorful smoke with a hearty texture. The burn line stays mostly sharp with minimal waviness, and the ash forms firm, medium-gray stacks that cling well between taps. Combustion is steady and cool despite the large ring gauge, rewarding slow, relaxed puffs.
Whisky Pairing Recommendation
Pair with Herradura Añejo Tequila or Glenmorangie 12 Year Lasanta; both complement the cigar’s cedar, cocoa, and spice while enhancing its earthy sweetness.

Aging Potential
Aging potential is moderate: 3–5 years will soften the pepper and integrate the cedar and cocoa into a smoother, more rounded profile.
Final Assessment
A robust, traditional Mexican puro that delivers honest, hearty flavors with dependable construction in a generous format.
