An even coloring and waxy texture on the wrapper gave this cigar a textbook appearance. A mild, enjoyable fermented tobacco aroma was present on the pre-light, with some raisin scents near the open foot. Despite the draw being slightly snug, it was no obstacle. The smoke volume was sufficient and presented a mix of flavors. Opening the flavor mix-up was an in-your-face licorice, finished by a long toasted bread flavor. Medium to lower full in nicotine strength.
