Cedar, bittersweet chocolate/cocoa, black pepper, leather, sweet nut/banana hintsOnce a limited Pepín release and later reissued as a regular My Father line, El Centurion combines a Sun‑Grown Criollo 98 wrapper with a layered Nicaraguan core. The smoke opens on cedar and bittersweet chocolate, slides into leather and black pepper through the middle, and often flashes sweet‑nutty moments—banana, brownie or bread‑like notes—late in the stick. Construction and draw are solid across vitolas, and the line’s balance of savory backbone and sweeter edges gives it a more nuanced finish than some heavier Garcia offerings.
