This substantial cigar boasts a rugged, reddish-brown wrapper with a mottled appearance. However, its size belies some inconsistencies, as it burns unevenly and has an irregular draw. The flavor profile is robust and earthy, featuring notes of coffee, leather, and a hint of walnut. Unfortunately, the experience is marred by a bitter, oily aftertaste that detracts from the overall enjoyment.
