Tasting Notes

First · Second · Final Third

How the cigar evolves, not just how it starts.

FIRST THIRD

First Third

Dark chocolate and espresso arrive together. The oil is obvious and the smoke is thick.

0 – 33%
SECOND THIRD

Second Third

Black pepper explodes retrohale without harshness; cocoa powder and leather weave through as strength accumulates.

33 – 66%
FINAL THIRD

Final Third

Back to damp earth and cocoa, strength fully released in the last third. Not one for an empty stomach.

66 – 100%

A glossy maduro wrapper you can feel the oil on. Dark chocolate and espresso press in from the first draw, black pepper detonates in the sinuses mid-way without rasping the throat, and the last third settles into damp earth and cocoa powder. Built for a single malt and a long evening.
