Smoking Notes:

Before lighting up:

Aromas of leather and spice.

Burn/Draw:

A nice, even burn and an easy draw. The ash holds nicely.

Initial third:  

The cigar starts out with a really pure roasted tobacco flavor. It really showcases the Cuban "twang". You get honey, vanilla, cedar, and tobacco in the beginning, with just a hint of something floral.

Middle third:

Continuing into the middle third, plum and spice emerge (nutmeg or cinnamon, maybe both), with a bit of cool mint. There’s also something of whiskey in here. Before the end of the second third it settles down into some creamy coffee flavors. There is also some taste of bread. It is a lot like a croissant dipped in coffee with cream.

Final third:

The end hinted at getting some nutmeg or cardamom, but mostly just kept developing the creamy coffee flavors with a hint of wood.

In summary, flavors are mild and not overpowering. Never harsh, the texture of the smoke is velvety and chewy.

Smoking time:  45 - 60 Minutes
