TL;DR - roasted beef with dalliances of cedar and chocolate. Recommended 👍 Aged 9 mos ⏳️ Pre-light is maduro and light barnyard. Top marks for construction and draw. Light-up is easy; burn-line starts good with developing sugar-ring. The expected "roasted meat" is more like beef roast with faint cedar playing the background. I like it. Unique. Wrapping the first third I'm getting an intermittent background dark chocolate 🍫 The burn is proving difficult to maintain. Relights become regular. Seems the cherry stays lit, but the outer ring has trouble keeping up. If you don't mind that, it smokes great. Wrapping it up, I'll call this one meaty 🍖 and hearty. Medium nicotine; medium/strong flavors. Pair with sodas like Coke or Ginger Ale. This would also do great with a chewy red wine 🍷
The cigar provides a flavor profile of rich, creamy oak goodness. The wood sounds stay prominent throughout. There's just enough spice for an added touch without any harsh pepper. The draw was smooth and the burn only waved a little bit.
