The Quesada Tributo cigar is a stick that was blended by the Quesada family with each vitola named for a family member or close friend who has passed on, including 3 that were killed in a tragic plane crash in 2002.

The cold draw was fruity akin to raisins, plums, and a faint hint of figs. The first third of the cigar boasts cinnamon and vanilla blended with a darker spice which I'm assuming comes from the Nicaraguan ligero filler leaf. The second third continued some of those baking spices and introduced salty wood, leather, and creamy milk chocolate notes. The final third brings in a citrus flavor that I have yet to taste in a cigar and I was pleasantly surprised to find here. The citrus makes for a long, wonderful finish and an interesting flavor note that adds complexity.

These cigars are an excellent smoke for the money and fans of cigars made by Don Pepin will likely enjoy these cigars as well.
