This one was a bit of a surprise. While its dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper suggests a heavier smoke, the actual experience was remarkably smooth and sweet. The cigar was not overly complex, but rather steady and consistent without getting boring. The flavours seamlessly transition from sweet and nutty into a darker spectrum of espresso and a herbal taste. The whole time, there was a lingering presence of cedar and white pepper that adds a bit of spiciness. It is a mild blend that delivers a smooth and relaxing smoke. I give it a 7 out of 10 because I prefer more complex and heavier cigars.
