1st third: Starts with pink pepper, cedarwood, sourdough bread and almonds.

2nd third: Notes of popcorn and mineral rich soil gets a more prominent flavour feature.

Burn: Burns sharp with a firm and stable gray-ish ash.

Conclusion: A medium bodied cigar with a medium to full strength profile. While its balanced there still is a strong pepper spice in each part. Had to be relit a fair few times as it had its tendencies.

Result: In my book this is a 88 point cigar.
