Profile: the smoking experience starts off with a medium
black pepper spice. During the first
inch the cigar comes across medium to medium full because of the peppery style.
After the first inch the spice settles
and the flavors start to evolve. During
the second inch of the smoke the body is more medium. A woody tone that seems like cedar blends in
with a dash of pepper. Soon a toasted barley
grain mixes in with a hint of creamy oatmeal grain with the cedar note swirling
around. The pepper is still present,
just a dash, but it is more on the back and aftertaste. During the second half of the smoke the
pepper seems to be more like a white pepper note. After the second inch of the cigar to the
finish the body is more mild-medium with a smooth and almost creamy feel.
To the Point: take your time smoking this stick and
experience the ever-changing flavor profile.
At three bucks a stick it is a
very good value.
