Second review, very consistent. A clean flavor profiles consists mainly of leather, chocolate, and spice. There's no pepper or bitterness at all. The construction is firm with almost no sponginess. The draw is easy & smooth, with a very even burn line.

TL;DR - mild cigar. Uninteresting flavor. 5 mos aged. ⏳️ Prelight: surprisingly, nothing to smell or taste. Firm to the touch with no soft spots. Draw is fine. Light-up is easy, if perfect. An ultra-light tobacco spice starts early. Predominant flavor might be hay. It doesn't have dry qualities and the hay flavor isn't bad, so it's starting as a decent mild cigar. The burn-line is perfect 👌 and no runners / canoes. It's smoking great and smooth. Gargantuan plumes of white, puffy smoke. Coming to the end, it's been a decent experience. Yet, nothing special. If you like a really well built and hyper-mild cigar, this might be for you.

Great up until the last third. Got a little harsher and harder to smoke. But overall a good smoke

Smooth, medium bodied, flavorful, great draw and smoke volume. Wrapper a bit off at the top, but merely a detraction from appearance not function.

Very good smoke. Didn’t realize this was the last one I posted here. And I’m back to post again.
