A beautiful looking robusto shaped cigar that had a rich and oily, smooth looking wrapper. The pre-light nose had a dominating sweet cedar note that also carried over to the pre-light taste, which also had an earthy oakiness. The draw was incredibly balanced and effortless, while the cigar was solid to the touch. Once lit the cigar offered a creamy, dense texture with intense spicy red pepper notes through the nose. There was a slight resistance to the draw, which was smooth and allowed plenty of smoke through to the palate with ease. The burn was slow and produced a long, light gray ash. As the cigar was smoked, a sweetness developed in the aroma and taste but the cigar maintained a spicy character throughout the duration of the smoking experience. Medium-bodied at the start with a full-bodied, long finish. This is a hardy cigar with full flavors and a dominating spiciness.
