A mild-medium smoke with notes of subtle pepper, cream, and toast / wood. Draw was very tight and needed constant poker use, but thee burn stayed true. Simple flavors that blended pretty well.
Mild cigar. Very smooth and paired well with Macallan 12. Also tried with Lagavulin Offerman Edition single malt in charred oak cast; however, the Lagavulin was much sharper and more smokey and overpowered the cigar.
This is an ideal morning cigar. It is just shy of a medium and towards the upper end of a mild extremely creamy finish. Pepper and cedar along with nuttiness and a bit of coffee. I only smoke a cigar of this type in the morning with a coffee. I think for the demographic its aimed at, an Ashton would take the edge, but I would gladly buy a box of this to put next to the Ashton’s.
Solo smoke today. Fragrant first puff. Not my favorite flavor profile, but cool that I'm registering different things. Easy to smoke, but I feel like about halfway through it started to burn slower... or I just started smoking it slower?
My first time picking out my own cigar. Started out a little strong, but an easy pull. Wish I had punched it instead. Nice transition from peppery to creamy.
