This had an unmistakable pre-light smell with sweet, earthy tones that dominated the senses on the pre-light. The wrapper was dark and hardy with a fine sandpaper texture between the fingers.  Solid to the touch, the draw was extremely smooth and effortless.  There were some noticeable spices in the nose with a full, sweet aroma. Medium-full with an easy going finish. The cigar was packed with full, sweet flavor.
