NOTES:
Herbaceous | White pepper | Pale spice
Muffled & at times mumbled, at more times pleasantly pedestrian. Herbaceousness-forward. Sweetgrass parsley, maybe chive gambit. That, gently w/in a slight clotted cream. White peppercorn up&down, in&out. Spices are muted bits of white ginger, cardamom. Simply doesn't evolve or expand. No true delineation. I'm left wanting more of something. I get flowers & dust.
Draws well and smooth, albeit at rare times a little emptily. Burns on a rather uneven line that doesn't require a retouch. Built a bit light of 'baccy but seams, cap hold loosely. Aroma is sweet light tobacco, as is the moderate-length'd finish. A bit of salty suede clings to the cheeks. A soft meh of an experience.
