What @sousa likes

AI Palate Summary

"I tend to gravitate toward full-flavored, medium-to-full strength cigars with rich dark chocolate and earthy notes — a little pepper and espresso in the mix is always welcome. I don't have a strong preference for size, but I do appreciate solid construction and good value for the money. Nicaraguan or Honduran tobacco tends to show up in what I enjoy most."
