This cigar looked like a brick of oily dark chocolate. It was rugged with a square pressed shape and an extremely dark, slightly veiny wrapper and a sweet, earthy, cocoa-like smell on the pre-light nose. It was solid to the touch and was effortless to enjoy. Once lit the taste and aroma was similar to the pre-light smell, rich with earth, chocolaty spice and tobacco notes. The burn was slow and even.

The cigar had a big flavor profile that was very rich from the first puff to the last. The texture of the smoke was light on the palate at first, but gained momentum as it was enjoyed and finished very full. It was a refined full body, not one for the sake of power rather it accentuated the flavors of the cigar. Nice spicy characteristic complimented the overall flavor. This was a refined, hardy full cigar with outstanding construction.
