- Deeply sweet and pepper-spiced hardwood overtones
- High-up undertones of bitter and savory aspects.
- Dark & somber-so notes
- Roasted and toasted campfire feels. Never chars/bites.
- Rigid delivery eventually settles into a heavy creaminess.
- Very smooth character, considering its rugged profile.
- Finish shortens a bit (bitter-sweet w/ spicy addition) Ends with charcoal lilt.
- Not overly complex but the intent seems to be a straight-forward one.
- Combustion is flawless in this and across the Casa Cuevas portfolio.
