Prelight: Sweet tobacco, caramel, cedar
1st 1/3
Salty nuts, sweet cedar, bitter earth, cocoa and light black pepper, draw is great with lots of smoke coming off the foot.
So far a milder cigar to its CroMagnon brother and not as flavorful as the Aquitaine line.
Burn is almost perfect with no need for any touch-up.
2nd 1/3
The flavors are blending nicely and smoothing out with the black pepper moving to the background and the cocoa and nuttiness becoming creamy and more flavorful and with a slight sweet citrus on the retrohale.
Last 1/3
Not much has changed but the pepper comes back up a bit with the earthy and cedar notes that are sweeter.
This is a very enjoyable stick and Romacrafttobac should be proud of there whole line of cigars.
The Aquitaine line I believe to be my favorite, with its flavor bomb character.
Not that the Intemperance BA XXI Ambition is less but just different and a welcome change and love
Romacrafttobac whole line
Smoke time: 1 hr 30 min
Score 8.9 out of 10
