Size: 4X64, Double Figurado

Wrapper: Milk chocolate, oily and smooth feel, with tiny veins.

Construction: Firm and even feel all over when lightly squeezed.

Cold draw: Hints of spicy cedarwood, honey sweetness and hay.

1st third: Starts of with a bready sweet note, combined with a cedarwood and nutmeg finish.

2nd third: The flavours keeps pretty much the same from part one, with a addition of dark milk chocolate note.

Burn: Burns fairly sharp, with a white, firm and stable ash.

Smoke: Voluminous white smoke with a cool feeling on the tongue and a light draw.

3rd third: Keeps the same flavours from previous parts.

Conclusion: A medium bodied cigar with a medium strength profile. For it size I’m very impressed it took around 1h to smoke.

Result: In my book this is an 90 point cigar.
