NOTES:
Caramel | Cashew | Cedar

& who doesn't like occasional sweet nothings whispered in their ear? & who doesn't like shouting at their TV as horses run down the stretch? This stick has a bit of both. Big cushy notes of buttery cedar, salted caramel sauce, cashew butter. Subtle intricacies of savory brushed suede, pale exotic spices, sunlit wildflowers. White pepper.

An experience to leave a sweet taste in your mouth as your mind wanders. Or, an opportunity to explore precise elusive depths. Suede carries a slight chicken coup & cereal grain. Spices include cardamom, white ginger, saffron. Wildflowers include distinct appley chamomile and grow around sweet herbaceousness & from damp clay soil.  

Creamy dreamy af. Somehow not cloying. Balanced well. Complexities & nuances run deep as addressed. Fairly-so, the cigar which classic blends of its ilk aspired to. Performance-wise, a half-tick wavy & quick to self-correct burn. Excellent pacing. Dense sheath ash. Tight assemblage. Bigly smoky. Aroma is all that (mentioned above) and the proverbial bag of chips... literally & greasily.
