Although somewhat tame for a Joya de Nicaragua cigar, the super-premium Cabinetta Series has all of the complexity and full flavor that I have come to expect from this famous brand. The rare and gorgeous Ecuador shade-grown Nicaraguan Criollo wrapper covering this masterpiece is peanut-butter-brown in color and smooth as silk. Under the hood, you will find the very best aged Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. Right off the bat, the stick is strong and peppery, however, just a few puffs in, its medium-bodied character really comes to life as notes of cocoa, spice, almonds, and cedar come into play. Cabinetta’s finish is smooth and sweet, while a nice taste remains on the palate, inviting you to smoke another.
