Pre light- I took the cigar lengthwise across my nose, and got hints of spice and coffee flavors, with a little sweetness. I could tell right then, that this was one I was going to enjoy!
1/3- The first third was just what I smelled, lots of coffee/spice flavors, with a little woodiness mixed in for good measure. Left a nice lingering flavor on the back of my tongue.
2/3- The coffee flavor developed a bit more, and the sweetness came out nicely. It was going along nicely, with an even burn and lots of smoke. Paired up nicely with my Trader Joe's Bavarian Style Hefewizen.
3/3- This is where it really kicked it up a notch. The spice kicked up dramatically, and the nicotine REALLY kicked in. Having not eaten all day, I was REALLY feeling it, but that was a good thing! The coffee flavor seemed to dim itself down into the background, and the spice took over.
All in all, I nubbed this smoke down till my lips were burning, and I wanted more! I am holding back. I would LOVE to go smoke another one, but there are only two left in my humi from the bomb that Bob sent, so I want to save them, at least until I order a wheel for myself. All in all, a GREAT smoke, and if you haven't ordered a wheel yet, what the HELL are you waiting for???
