badwhale Challenge #3
Smoke ??? ~ 5.0" x 36
Drink ~ Yuengling Lord Chesterfield Ale ; Tunes ~ None
Prelight: Colorado to Colorado claro shade wrapper (medium light brown). Faint tobacco scent, and decent construction. No triple cap and a slight sweet tobacco taste on the prelight cut taste.
Light: Pretty easy. Very tight draw
1st 3rd: Sweet leather notes, and I guess grassy flavor? Kind of hard to describe with the tight draw. Weird oily aftertaste. Light body, and medium flavor.
Ash: Medium gray and charcoal layered well with tiny white ash bubbles. Holds on for 1"
2nd 3rd: Twangy sweet and slight oily bitter. To be honest, the tight draw is turning me off to this smoke, otherwise the flavor profile is interesting. Tannic? Is that the right word? Overall leaning to the grassy oily side.
3rd 3rd: Oily and slightly bitter sweet notes on a very slow draw. Not bad.
Overall Impression: Interesting, however I'm not a fan of a really tight draw.
Thanks Craig for BWC#3
