Team Cigar Review: Bombay Tobak Gaaja Maduro Torpedo
The Gaaja Maduro started great with balance and nuance, but unfortunately fell further and further apart as the cigar progressed. This makes me believe the cigar still needs time.

This is the profile where MBombay really shines for me. The unique wood notes along with some cream and transitions between black pepper and cinnamon.
This cigar had a nice and mellow flavor with some pretty interesting transitions. The transitions were also plentiful which really kept my interest throughout the cigar.
We had been working on the blend of Gaaja for more than 4 years. The process involved in logistics and long fermentation of tobacco from countries like Peru and Paraguay, really tested our patience. We had to wait for 3 vintages of the Hybrid Connecticut wrapper leaf for the perfection we wanted. As the elders say, “patience pays off”; hence Gaaja.
