Plenty of big flavors here. Opens with a blast of pepper that quickly fades to an undertone. It’s replaced by leather, wood and some barn yard and balanced by hints of honey sweetness. I don’t normally go for the big maduro type cigars, but in this case found myself really enjoying the complexity and interplay of flavors.
