A delicate yet satisfying smoke that would be perfect for the morning.
⠀
I would be the first to admit that this isn't my usual style of cigar. I'm more of an after dinner smoker. That being said, there is always a time and place for a lighter cigar.
⠀
The wrapper looked light and creamy with very little in the way of veins on it. The sultana aromas were enhanced by a delicately sweet nougat taste on the cold draw.
⠀
For the most part the palate remained very consistent throughout, although each third had a flavour that was slightly more dominant than its predecessor. The first prevalent taste was a creamy latte which lasted through to the middle when a gentle liquorice flavour started to develop in the smoke. The final third introduced a warming cedar on the retrohale.
⠀
Overall it was a tasty and uncomplicated smoke that I would recommend to anyone new to cigars or seeking a lighter smoke.
