Pre-light: Nice Colorado shade wrapper. Tiny pigtail cap. Looks like nice construction. A nice musty / musky tobacco scent. Light tobacco taste on cut prelight. Just a little spice.

Light: Easy. Light to medium draw.

1st 3rd: Spicy, but not overwhelming. A light sweet tobacco ring and some underlying leather. Nice start. Mellows out into a nice mix of sweet creamy tobacco, and a touch of pepperish spice and leather.

Ash: Light to medium gray. Some dark splotches. Layered well. Holds on for about 1 ¼”

(sorry missed the picture)

2nd 3rd: This corojo wrapper is really nice. Mellow and smooth, but still hits a medium to full body and flavor. Cool burn. Detecting a little oil now. Still creamy with a touch of spice and tobacco / leather.

3rd 3rd: Same, mostly. A little more oil kicking in now and the creamy / spice has passed. Solid sweet tobacco and leather. Maybe a touch of woodsy now.

Overall impression: Nice smoke. Will probably get more if I think about it.

Thanks puffnstuff for including this in the prize pack.
