Burn Journey

First Third

Instant coffee explosion - think French pressed dark roast with melted chocolate ganache. Undercurrent of black cherry syrup keeps the bitterness in check. Draws like a proper espresso machine with steady smoke output.

Mid Section

Transition to mocha territory. Nicaraguan tobacco punches through with cedar spice while vanilla creaminess softens the edges. Watch for occasional tar buildup near the band - quick purge recommended.

Final Stretch

Peppercorn bite emerges but gets balanced by persistent cocoa powder notes. Ash holds strong til last inch. Pair warning: actual coffee might taste bland afterward.

Flavor Counterparts

  • Tabak Especial Negra Robusto: Darker roast profile, harsher nicotine kick
  • Isla del Sol Toro: Sweeter caramel notes, looser draw
  • Leather Rose Robusto: Floral twist, tighter combustion

Factory Footprint

Hand-rolled at Drew Estate's Nicaraguan HQ using triple-fermented fillers. The box-press technique ensures uniform burning - no canoeing issues even in 75% humidity. Let these rest 6+ months if you prefer subtlety over coffee bombardment.
