Right from the start, I detected notes of salt, pepper, and a delightful yeasty goodness. The smoke was thick and abundant, making for a satisfying experience.

Throughout the smoke, the dominant flavour was that of salted bread, complemented by a chewy texture and a mild pepper finish. I had heard nothing but praise for this cigar, and I decided that now was the perfect time to give it a try. It’s a reminder that life is good, even amidst the hustle and bustle of the approaching Christmas season. It’s funny how one of the best times of the year can also be one of the most stressful, making this moment an ideal opportunity to sit back and relax.
The burn and construction of the cigar were spot-on, with the ash falling at the 35-minute mark, and this was without me being overly cautious.
As I ventured into the last third of the cigar, I noticed subtle hints of milk chocolate, raw nuts, and faint floral notes.
In summary, this cigar provided a rounded, smooth, and thoroughly enjoyable smoking experience. Its flavour and strength were perfectly balanced at a medium level.

Perhaps the only downside was that my wife was left wrestling with our 5-month-old who was refusing to go to sleep while I enjoyed this moment of tranquillity on the balcony. Wish me luck upon my return!
