This was a rich looking cigar with a dark and oily wrapper. The pre-light nose had a mild sweet tone with earthy notes and subtle tones of raisin, wood and well-fermented tobacco coming through in the cold-draw flavor.

The cigar wasted no time providing a full flavor profile once lit, with peppery spice in the taste and the nose when retro haling the smoke. It had a full body from the first puff to the last with medium strength that slowly built to full. The aroma was rich with sightly sweet, earthy notes.

Some cocoa developed in the aroma, which didn’t want to let up becoming more intense throughout the duration of the cigar. The spice traits settled in the taste but more white peppery spice intensified in the nose.

Overall this was a satisfying, full flavored, rich cigar with outstanding construction and burn. Ideal for those who enjoy a lot of personality, spice and a full character. A great cigar to sit back with and enjoy everything it has to offer.
