This 6x52 stick offered a medium brown satin wrapper with a fairly firm construction and triple cap. Flavors started out as a medium bodied pepper powerhouse with near full strength, with transitions of a light creamy leather, slight sweetness and cocoa for a very brief point. The 2nd half lost most of the pepper kick, retaining just a general tobacco and pepper taste on the short clean finish. The draw flavors of the last half were more muted, with the leather fading out to just a tobacco taste and the strength went down a notch better matching the body. Burn was very good all the way down, the ash holding on to 1 1/2" each time. The draw was on the firm side, producing a good amount of smoke.
