Cold draw: Dry cedarwood and light ginger spice.

1st third: Light charred cedar matches, vanilla whipped cream, roasted hazelnuts, very light spice and a touch of cacao.

2nd third: Notes of cardamom sweet bread and the charred cedar matches note turns to fresh cedar spills. Keeping the other previous flavours steady.

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