Pre-smoke
Scent of Wrapper: cedar. Smells like the humi.
Scent at Foot: nice tobacco aroma. Nothing special comes to mind.
Appearance
Wrapper: Clean Connecticut wrapper. Hardly any veins. The foot of the wrapper was split probably due to humidity changes.
Feel: Very nicely rolled. Good fill throughout the cigar. No soft spots or plugs.
Tongue: Not a lot of flavor on the tongue. Very mild Connecticut wrapper.
Flavor on Draw: Nothing special on the draw.
Smoke
Taste: Mostly straw and grass for the first half of the smoke. Flavor profile changed to that of leather and then the build up of tar changed it at the band. Had to put it out at that time.
Flavor Changes: See above.
Strength: Mild flavor throughout the smoke.
Feeling: N/A
Scent of Smoke: Hay and straw
Heat on Fingers and in Mouth: This smoke never got hot until the band.
Draw: Very good draw throughout the cigar. Lasted about an hour.
Finish: Nice finish left on the palate. Didn’t last that long though.
Other Aspects of the Cigar Smoking Experience: A very smooth smoke,
Final Rating: I rate this 6 – Good quality mild smoke.
