PUNCH Short de Punch
This short robusto carries a somewhat dull claro colorado wrapper, soft to the touch yet promising. The cold draw offers whispers of wood, earth, and dried fruit, inviting patience and attention.
At first light, the smoke unfurls with notes of dried fruits and subtle toasty hints. Like last year, the strength rises swiftly, settling into a bold and sustained presence early on.
The second third wraps the palate in rich caramel and smoky peat tones, delivered by a thick, enveloping smoke. Yet, the body gently tapers, giving space to reflection.
The final phase warms with cozy notes of fresh-baked bread, culminating in a hearty, full-bodied finish.
Reflection: More robust than one might expect, this impeccably crafted short robusto is a new star in a label that’s eager for fresh modules. It proudly retains its four rings from last year—a fine balance of power and pleasure at a favorable price point.
