Notes

Earthy, hay, dry flowers, musty, dirty - is this a worst cigar of the month nominee? Not at all! This barber pole offers an interesting aroma combo. Think of it as a combination of smells you’ll feel in the dry grass field with lots of fall flowers around. And If you stay with it till the end, last 25% offers an intense kick of everything you tasted so far tuned to 10. 7 out of 10 is my mark, I’ll smoke it again when I’m in the mood for a switch from my typical cigar roster.
