Not a bad stick.

My beverage: Coffee (very nutty), with a dash of cream and a stick of cinnamon in the cup.

Pre-Light: Sweet tobacco and a sweet spiced cocoa. Smells great!

Upon Lighting: Sweet spiced cocoa and mild tobacco undertones, mild spicy tingle on the throat and through the nose. Very thick and creamy smoke, coats the palate very well, excellent mouth-feel.

1st 3rd: Well, it hasn't changed, a bit spicier with the additions of sweet cinnamon and nutmeg, but still the base of cocoa and sweet tobacco.

2/3: Very sweet cocoa, stronger cinnamon, still the spiciness.

3/3: Went out! Relight - Heavier tobacco, heavier cocoa, spices still lingering. Damp earth at the end of the last third after the band, let it go out about 1" away from tip.

Over-all: A very enjoyable smoke, a bit lighter than I thought it would be but tasty as heck nonetheless. I'll have to try one of these with a Mexican style spiced hot cocoa.
