This cigar was solid to the touch with a hearty, dark and oily wrapper. There was a slight resistance to the draw that delivered smoke with a big aroma and rich full flavors to the palate. Spices developed and lingered on the finish and became very intense through the nose. The smoke had a thick and chewy mouth feel. The aroma continued to develop and had a very enticing character with consistent spices. There was a slow and even burn that held on to a long and flaky ash. Overall a very w ell made full flavored and full bodied cigar with outstanding construction. A complex, delicious flavor and aroma wouldn’t let up. An excellent cigar.
