This one didnt absolutely blow me away on flavor, though it was not unappealing. Where it really got me was the construction. Almost no draw at all, which is a shame. Of course that also played a role in the flavor of the cigar, and as I have really enjoyed the rest of Henki’s new stuff I’ll probably give this another go.
