Smoking Experience

First Third

The cold draw releases sweet hay notes. Upon lighting, buttery smoke coats the palate with cashew undertones. Look for white pepper retrohales that transition to warm biscuits around the 0.5" burn line.

Mid Section

Cedar becomes prominent at the 2" mark accompanied by baking spices. The ash holds solid gray layers for about 1.5" before dropping. Some users report needing minor touch-ups in 65%+ humidity environments.

Final Third

Nicaraguan binder pushes through with black tea tannins around the last 3". Almond skins emerge in the aftertaste - not bitter but slightly drying. Moderate nicotine build-up suggests pairing with coffee or light soda.
