First third tastes of mild tobacco, cut wood, leafy herb, notes of allspice. Second third is more botanical, round, creamy on the exhale. Final third is earthy, woodsy, walnut, faint pepper. Aroma is roasty, nutty, cured leaf. Ash is marbled well, holding near two inches. Even burn throughout. Consistent medium draw to the band.
This is a lovely mild smoke, a well rounded, balanced taste wrapped in a big stick. The profile is full and complex, sustaining flavor down past the midpoint without succumbing to a bitter peppery cliff. Great balance of mild yet surely present tastes. A great hour smoke. Well recommended.
