Wrapper: Milk chocolate brown, coarse texture with small veins.

Construction: Firm and even feel when lightly squeezed.

Cold draw: Simple syrup.

1st third: Starts with an awfully sweet tone, some toasted bread and wood, but the sweetness overpowers the taste.

2nd third: Just artificial flavours.

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

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

Conclusion: A mild bodied and mild strength profile. Awful experience, I do not recommend it, if you like the taste of tobacco.
