Flavor Ladder
First part: Thanks to the pointed tip, the opening is a concentrated dark chocolate and spice flavor, and the smoke is highly directional on the tongue, with a very pure feeling. Mid-section: As the combustion progresses into the wider ring, the flavor becomes increasingly rich and full-bodied. Brown sugar, aged leather, and intense espresso flavors intertwine, with a noticeable oiliness. Finish: The finish is extremely powerful and deep, with distinct aromas of toasted oak and sweet dried fruit. Encased in the Maduro wrapper, the spiciness is transformed into a rounded and profound flavor.
