Wrapper: Milk chocolate, oily with some protruding veins.
Construction: Fairly firm and even when lightly squeezed.
Cold draw: Hay and light wood.
1st third: Start with a fresh cut light wood, herbs and peppery spice.
2nd third: Hints of medium roasted coffee are added.
Burn: Burns a little uneven, with a flaky white/gray ash.
