Light: Easy. Medium draw.
1st 3rd: Spicy. Leather and tobacco notes. Strong, full body flavors. A sipper for sure. Overbearing retrohale blasts.

2nd 3rd: Full body. Sweet tobacco, leather & musky oaky flavors. Lots of spice. It’s blended well. Forces you to take your time.

3rd 3rd: Needed a purge at this point. Same spicy profile, but strangely has mellowed a bit in the last 3rd. Leather, spice, sweet tobacco is subdued a bit. Actually, a lot of leather now, and I’m getting some “ash” tongue.
