First third:
Freshly lit red oak kindling flavor woodsy.
Just a tad of dry chocolate
Damn why do I taste a little nutmeg and spice
Nose exhale is extra chocolatey.
Nice amount of smoke.
second third has a little more umph of course.
Bountiful woodsy flavor, the draw is now near perfect.
Ash hanging good, beautiful gray with black specks, and stripes and splotches.
at about one inch long right now.

FOOD: ham, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, cheese toast with sharp cheddar,
and sweet cornbread... drinking coke and whiskey, with a sip of coffee now and then.

Second third is kicking in wonderfully... Predominantly woodsy , hint of nuts and chocolate.

Last Third:

Heavy woodsy flavor and a TAD of sweetness. Lots of guess what?, tobacco flavor! -)
A finger burner for sure.

Overall Impression:

This cigar Is a wonderful morning smoke and for me just a great everyday/anytime smoke in general. Can't go wrong for the price vs quality.
