NOTES:
So mature is this profile that it has long ago spoken to Henry Winkler about a reverse mortgage. Viscous plum sweetness inherent in a natural 'baccy & braced by black pepper. Dark chocolate shavings. Undertones are top-to-bottom: clove, leather & its oils, Teriyaki beef jerky, smoked paprika, black walnut. Underbelly is compost, manure and all kinds of gross shit which taste wonderful in cigars. There is a slight throatiness, some sharp corners in the 3/3.

Finishes with a slightly salty mineral lilt which aids in cleaning up after a long-legged sweet-savory finish. Smoke out-put is moderate+ and culminates in a room-note of a peppery iteration of finish. Burns evenly and at a lovely pace. Stacks ash all silvery & admirably. Draws evenly throughout with just the proper tick of resistance.
