I actually Smoked one OTT, which is something I used to never do. All I can say is DAYUM!!!!
Awesome little smoke. Great construction, dark oily wrapper, and amazing flavor.

First third
This stick was strong out of the gate with a medium body, perfect draw, great smoke

production, with a core creamy flavor, with hints of honey and a yet unidentified spice.

Very firm Dark grey and black ash, that must be forceibly removed at around 1 1/2"

Second Third

Still a perfect burn, the honey and cream flavors are getting stronger, and the body is

moving from medium to full.

Last third

WOW I am getting a nice little nic buzz. Burn is still great, and the honey flavor has

morphed into a lovely caramel flavor, but the spice has faded away somewhat.

All in all, I would rate this cigar a 4.6 on a 5 point scale. I don't see how this stick can

get much better, but I have stuck half the box into the long term storage cooler and the

other 11, into my ready to smoke humi.

Have a great week
