Tasting notes
The experience starts with a bold "punch" of black pepper and a distinct earthiness. You'll likely notice a sweet, dark undertone similar to molasses or pumpernickel bread.
The spice mellows slightly into a baking spice profile (like clove and nutmeg). A deep dark chocolate or espresso bitterness begins to develop, which is characteristic of its Ecuadorian Maduro wrapper.
The strength ramps back up with heavy notes of charred oak, leather, and a lingering red pepper on the retrohale.
Burn: poor
Draw: tight draw
Construction: humidity problem, cracking
