Pre-light: Colorado shade wrapper. Has a reddish hue, like a Rosado (but it isn’t.) Faint pretzel finish on wrapper. OK construction. Has a crisp tobacco scent. A little spice on cut prelight flavor. Sweet tobacco.



Light: Easy to medium draw. Easy light.

1st 3rd: A bit peppery to start, but not too much. I wanna say some oil, but faint. Light to medium body. If it weren’t for the tannic / sour aftertaste there wouldn’t be much to report.



Ash: Good structure. Medium gray with black-gray stripes. Holds on for about 1”



2nd 3rd: More of the same bland, uneventfullness. *yawn* It’s mild, and unoffensive, mostly smooth. Still an acrid aftertaste. If not for that, really nothing.



3rd 3rd: Getting more woodsy now, but still just bland with a crappy aftertaste.



Overall impression: A Big ‘Ol “MEH”
