Beautiful smoke. Started off with a bit of pepper then transitioned to coffee, pastries, roast nuts, and honey. Strength then begins to pick up around the final third. Thoroughly enjoyed with a nice solid ash that held on till the bitter end. Testament to the quality and construction of this fine cigar!
