Love the construction on this stick, a very nice box pressed stick.

Picking this out my humi this morning I had a sniff and have never smelt a more spicy cigar.
This was also the case when I punched and took a pre light draw....a veritable spice rack whiff. (in a pleasant way)

This stick lit very easily and was soon giving off lovely aromatic smoke.

First draw I got the spice and ceder notes.
This carried on for the first third and then I started to get a hint of espresso.
Did need relighting 3 times when the ash became too big. Not a big problem though.

Straight away I could see why this came in at 2 in Cigar Aficionado's top 25 of 2013

I will be buying more of these when I get the chance.

Bit of flowering on the ash there, how was the nicotine hit?

[ValeTudoGuy]

Sounds good, my experience of Aging Room is that they look gorgeous and have great flavours but terrible burn.

[MarkLondon]

Burn wasn't too bad....although as the ash got bigger it did need big puffs to get the smoke through until the ash fell.

Got a nicotine hit...although hadn't eaten much today....had to nip off to get a coke.
