Right out of the box, it has a hefty feel, a silky wrapper and sweet tobacco aroma.From the first few puffs I tasted notes of coffee, cocoa, and earthiness. The smoke is thick and flavorful throughout with later notes of leather, wood, spice and a persistent sweetness.
I enjoyed this cigar a whole lot, it had great flavor! Worth every penny.
