Light: Easy, using a cedar splint. Medium to tight draw.
1st 3rd: Nutty and sweet tobacco. Almost a bittersweet walnut ring to it. Some oily notes mixed in. Mild to medium body with medium to full flavor. Nice balance.

2nd 3rd: Again, nutty and sweet tobacco. A saltiness like salt water taffy note now. A little more rich in the tobacco flavors. Like a sweet leather. Still a mild to medium body but full flavor. Nice.

3rd 3rd: More woodsy and nutty now than the sweet tobacco. Getting a little toasty at this point and flavors are still blending really well.

Overall impression: Seems it would be a great morning smoke with coffee. Very good tonight while I was aiming for something not too heavy.
