NOTES:
Sweet Malt | White Pepper | Clay Loam Soil
A rising throughout (but never high-up) citrus lilts-lifts the white pepper. Feels like someone ordered this with no MSG. Still a pleasant cigar, excellent for those with sensory hypersensitivities. Draws a tick-plus tight, and a toothpick/massage combo loosens it enough but not all the way.
Ash is a proud grower. Smoke out-put increases via progression from moderate to more-than, although aroma remains muted. A quite-slow rate of speed. No fast movements, keeps its hands where I can see 'em. Build outside of knotted draw is excellent. A simple, kind escape.
The horse you put the fussy old lady on at a dude ranch. Maybe her nervous grand-kid. She'll walk them both right to calm.
