Smoking evolution of Vegafina little cigars: The first stage: The first puffs are dull, woody, calm. Then hot peppery shades come to the taste, a garnished dominant is formed, tannins intensify and become rough, so that the “mouth” becomes excessively dry, and the cigar seems noticeably stronger than it is. By the middle of a third, the taste, which was previously short, stretches; the aftertaste has hints of mature red wine for some time. At the same time, it still seems to be insufficiently embossed, flatish. The scent is more pleasant and complex; in it, in addition to the prevailing garnish and spicy, there are animal and sweetish fruity notes. The second stage: The taste is noticeably softened: tannins not only do not seem rough, but become silky. The “mouth” is only now completing the structure, becoming embossed, acquiring completeness. The aroma is made more compact due to the closer interweaving of shades, forms a spicy-garnish dominant; its sweetish fruitiness successfully complements the severity of the taste. The third stage: At the beginning of the third, the taste becomes even more rounded, becoming denser, even, even solid. Moderately spicy notes begin to prevail in it, for some time even displacing the garnish from the dominant.
