Size: 6x48
Appearance:
A nice CT wrapper that is smooth but has a couple of large veins. There is a distinctive double cap on the end.
Pre-light draw:
Mild flavor that is slightly fruity but mainly tobacco.
First Third:
Still mild, a bit leathery, but not yet anything to write home about. There is still a nice tobacco taste, but I can get that from plenty of other cigars.
Oh, and the band came off quite easily, which for me is always a plus.
Second Third:
The taste hasn’t really changed, but it has mellowed out even more. There may be some pepper, but it could be my imagination.
Last Third:
The taste is still consistent, but there is more of a peppery flavor (so I’m guessing before it wasn’t a figment of my own imagination. It is a really nice mellow flavor. Not something you’d want to smoke with a strong drink, that would certainly overpower it, but it is a nice smoke.
My only complaint is that there is a small tear in the wrapper in the last third that gave me some trouble. Other than that, a nice stick, nothing amazing, but nice.
