Tasting Journey

First Third (0-15min)

Cool draw reveals cashew butter and paper-white smoke. The Connecticut wrapper shows its silky character with faint vanilla pod sweetness. Burn line stays razor-sharp without touch-ups.

Middle Third (15-25min)

Dominican fillers surface with toasted cedar notes. Almond skins emerge alongside baking spices - think cinnamon-dusted coffee beans. Smoke output remains moderate, perfect for indoor sessions.

Final Third (25min+)

Develops light leather undertones before the nub. Watch for slight nicotine tingle at the 30-minute mark - your cue to set it down. Leaves minimal aftertaste, making it office-friendly.

Smoker's Checklist

  • Pairs with light roast coffee or wheat beer
  • No need for V-cut - straight guillotine works best
  • Rotate every 3 puffs to prevent canoeing
  • Keep RH at 65% for optimal combustion
