A solid stick if you like a consistent flavor profile. Cocoa, light but very present. I also tasted honey. Mild body, average construction.

Rather enjoyed this very much. Nice smoke that brings solid flavors. I get citrus, cedar and brown sugar. It’s a nice mellow smoke that never gets above medium for me. This is a nice size to smoke as it gives me about an he and 20 minutes of pure enjoyment. Would not hesitate to smoke this again.

This one was probably my favorite size of the line. Perfect smoke time, great draw, nice flavors. There is a little lemon rind in this size that wasn’t really there in the others, and also a little bit more of that barnyard note I expect from Mr. Kelner. Nice smoke, I’d be happy to lift another one any time.
