Tasting Notes

The Experience

Went into this one with almost no expectations — and it genuinely surprised me.

Dark wood, subtle cocoa, and integrated spice created a refined medium-full profile that felt balanced from the beginning. The box pressed format delivered a slower, controlled burn with excellent consistency throughout the smoke.

What stood out most was the slight creaminess underneath the darker profile, adding just enough softness to balance the spice and make the experience feel smoother and more refined than expected.

Construction remained solid with an even burn, compact ash, and a comfortable draw from start to finish.

Paired with a sweeter whiskey, the experience opened up beautifully.

Final Thoughts

“Overall, a balanced, modern, and surprisingly refined cigar that stayed enjoyable the entire way through.”
