NOTES:
Earth | Citrus | Suede
White peppercorn kicker. Earthiness is pale & dusty, a tick terra cotta. Citrus is fusty lemon wedges. Suede is a distance below the others of the triad, a bit scratchy dryly-so. All that sorta dips down from primaries to secondaries, to under-belly. Some herbal qualities lilt in & out sporadically. There's a certain sweetness thru-out, simply & inherently.
One-dimensional; a mainly pleasant dimension. A bit abrading, particularly for only a medium profile. Sandy body on into finish of a moderate length. Sweet/sour earth, there. Nuanced some, complex proper, none. Even-keeled & unadorned, though a bit gruffer than what's typically pleasant. Thru the nose, speaking of gruff -- is pepper & lemon pledge on a dusty desk. Aroma? Rather a muted that w/ a bit of suede.
Slow-smoker. Straight-burner. Ash-stacker. Heart-breaker. Dream-maker. Love-taker. Don't you mess around with me. You're a heart-breaker, dream-maker, a love-taker. Don't you mess around, no no no. Where was I? Oh yes, bored. I am at bored. Nice smoke out-put. All aspects of roll hold admirably.
