A classic feeling cigar in the hand, it had a dark and oily wrapper with sweet, earthy notes on the pre-light nose. The smoke was incredibly creamy with a mild black pepper spice. Outstanding burn and construction, this cigar offered a lot of rich, dark peppery flavors while remained easy going and smooth on the palate. Some cocoa notes developed in the aroma, which really stood out. A well made, delicious cigar.
