I lit up this cigar and received a flood of pepper and other flavor profiles that stopped me in my tracks. After a few puffs I put my hot cup of coffee aside and replaced it with a large mug of cold water and proceeded with my smoke. This cigar had a beautiful habano oscuro oily wrapper. I was immediately hit with a punch of pepper, sweetness from some fruit and a wispy cocoa. This combinations of flavors varied in strength from puff to puff.:idunno: This cigar took me on a trip with winding roads not knowing where it will take me next. I experienced an array of subtle changes that was intriguing. I normally have my cigar with my coffee but not this time; I wanted to taste everything.:chicken: The construction of this cigar was excellent with no problem veins, razor sharp burn and just the right draw. I could see that this cigar would not be to the liking of everyone; a friend of mine had smoked this cigar and he could not figure it out. The flavor profile is very subtle and complex; my friend felt more comfortable with a Padron-he knew where it was taking him whereas I absolutely love my journey with this stick.:fly: I topped off this smoke with a large mug of ice water and this has been a cigar event!:santa:
