Really loved this in the Warped family, some can be hit or miss. Grassy and light-to-medium bodied vanilla, faint cocoa.

I needed some quick winter smokes so I thought I’d try these. They were so much better than I expected. Medium full, with some nice spice, vanilla, and saspirilla. They didn’t work out as winter smokes though, cause when I light one up I want to be warm and comfortable so I can take my time and enjoy it.

Tried these on a whim wasn’t expecting much as I am not a huge fan of the warped I have tried in the past but they definitely redeemed themselves on this one, it will make me revisit some of the others!
