TL;DR - a sublime journey. Toasty oak, hints of black cherry. Black pepper precedes the baked apple finish. A dark smoke. Recommended 👍 Aged 16 mos, dry-boxed 3 hours ⏳️ Pre-light sweet tobacco. Light-up is easy 👌 Goldilocks construction and draw. Initial impressions: Dark roasted espresso bean fades to toasty oak and hints of black cherry. As the smoke warms up, it gets a bit spicy too. Black pepper is prominent in the final third just before the brief baked apple finish 🍎 Medium/dark flavors and medium/heavy nicotine. Pairing ideas: this is a dark smoke, so something sweet would pair well.
when i asked for a richer cigar the tender had one in hand and it did NOT disappoint. deep spicy smoke. i really enjoy the lingering smell of this cigar on myself lying in bed after smoking.
