Construction: Fairly firm and even feel when lightly squeezed.

Cold draw: Pinewood.

1st third: Starts with a smooth toasted brioche roll with creamy french butter, pecan nuts, meringue, pinewood and nutmeg.

2nd third: Added notes of whipped cream, orange crisp milk chocolate and cinnamon makes this a highly enjoyable part of the cigar.

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

3rd third: While not a huge difference of previous parts, it still gives us a heightened wood note.
