Two inches in and the ash is still holding on strong! The draw flavors remain consistent with the spicy/pepper note and a sweet tobacco. The finish also continues the spicy pepper notes but adds in a baking spice near the end of the finish. The baking spice stays on the palate the longest and the flavors are still holding strong at a medium body. The draw remains perfect as did the burn line. Construction has been excellent.
With just over two inches left the baking spice has taken over the flavors on the draw and finish with the sweet creamy cedar coming in and out between draws. A few more puffs and a caramel note comes in on the draw and mixes well with the baking spice on the finish. The cigar is however starting to get a little warm and is slightly mushy. I sat the cigar down for the last time at the 58 minute mark. Overall, this was a tasty laid back easy going cigar. The body never left a medium and no strength every came in. It was easy to enjoy and easy to pick out the flavors. I definitely will be picking up more of these!
