This being the second cigar I reviewed blended by Indiana Ortez, I'm starting to really appreciate her blending style as it is focused on flavor without unnecessary strength. The Ventura Psyko Seven Nicaragua Robusto was smooth with vanilla extract like sweetness, cream, nuts, cedar and a little bit more spice kick than most Connecticut Shade wrapped cigars in the market.
There’s a new face and cigar on the scene at Ventura Cigar Company. Introducing PSyKo SEVEN Nicaragua by Indiana Ortez, rising cigar industry star, and daughter of tobacco industry icon Omar Ortez. Set to debut at TAA 2019, this collaboration is an addition to the popular PSyKO SEVEN brand, and offers a fresh, bold point of view from the young blender.
The Ventura Father, Friends and Fire 2018 Limited Edition showed a great mix of milder strength but full flavored profile. It's a shame the cigar can't be bought. But I'll also say, it will be worth attending Ventura events to score this cigar.
