Out of Humidor at 22`C and 68% RH, enjoyed at 28`C with several cans of Heineken.
Nicaraguan, 7" gauge 48 ?9.99 in U.K.
First impressions are good, springy but not soft, looks well made, pleasing mild odour.

Pre draw seems loose, leaving some mild woody flavours.
1/3 Bags of very cool mild smoke from the beginning. Muted woody flavours Draw is easy; very nice. The white ash fell at 1 inch.

2/3 Flavours seem consistent with the beginning possibly slightly less mild and a bit more depth of flavour. Burn is slow and consistent.
3/3 More of the same flavours, becoming a touch richer and fuller, Just started to show some bitterness when I stopped at an inch after 90 minutes..
Conclusion; A well made smoke that was perfect for a Friday afternoon, the burn was exemplary. Overall I was impressed with this rather simple relaxing smoke, great value.
