This 6×52 cigar features a dark brown oily wrapper with firm construction, minimal veins, tight seams and a soft tobacco aroma. First light reveals a rich decadent smoke with sweet oily deep tobacco and pepper flavors. The draw is perfect and the finish is long and zingy. The first third develops to a deep earthy leather with a big black pepper wash that carries over to the long finish. The burn is perfect, the ash bright white and the draw still fantastic. 30 minutes in to the 1/2 way point flavors transitioned to an oily creamy coffee flavor, smoke output doubled getting very thick and rich. It also has quite a strength kick, sneaking up on me making me a little dizzy. Ending at 55 min, the remainder was the same as the last point of change, keeping the nice creamy theme going on while the finish held a tiny bit of pepper and gave a very dry parched mouthfeel.
