Size: 6×52, Toro.

Wrapper: Light almond, oily and silky smooth with tiny veins.

Construction: Firm even feel all over when lightly squeezed.

Cold draw: Plums and hay.

1st third: Starts with a toasted bread, nutty creamy note and white pepper lingering in the background.

2nd third: Flavourwise it keeps the same.

Burn: Burns fairly sharp with a firm and white ash, but easily taped off.

Smoke: Voluminous white smoke with a medium heat feel on the tongue and a light draw.

3rd third: No changes to the taste, but it really dried up the mouth.
