Wrapper: Chestnut brown, oily and a tad bit coarse texture with tiny veins.

Cold draw: Roasted hazelnuts and tea.
1st third: Starts with a subtle nuttiness, sandalwood, light floral sweetness and black tea.
2nd third: Slight addition of spice lingering in the background.
Burn: Burns slowly and fairly sharp with a firm and stable white ash.
Smoke: Medium voluminous smoke with a medium heat feel on the tongue with a light draw.
3rd third: Toasted bread, hazelnut spread and a cup of black tea is the notes that have flown through this cigar from start to finish. A light spice and wood note have taken the backseat and just reminded my of their presents in the blend.

Conclusion: A medium bodied cigar with a medium strength profile. Enjoyable little smoke with a slow smoking time.
Result: In my book this is a 90 point cigar.
