This robusto cigar is characterized by its medium body and richly layered flavor profile, which combines sweet tea, cedar, and subtle citrus notes with a foundation of clean, woody cedar and a touch of peppery spices. The cigar's dark, nearly black appearance is due to its oily Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper, which encases a Habano Honduran binder and a blend of fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. The result is a smooth, effortless draw and an enjoyable smoking experience. As it burns, the cigar produces a creamy smoke filled with the flavors of coffee, cocoa, black pepper, and molasses. The finish is marked by subtle nuances of mint, shortbread, and nutmeg, adding depth and complexity to the overall experience.
