1st 1/3
Lots of smoke and perfect draw, light spice, white pepper, smokey oak wood, sweet cedar and toasty nuts, with a light body smoke.
Medium gray ash burning very straight
2nd 1/3
Smokey oak wood dominate the flavor profile now with a bit of toffee, coffee cream and mildly sweet
Final 1/3
More earthy and leathery mixed with the coffee and smokey wood notes and slight pepper
It’s definitely something new for me, having never had a Sam Leccia cigar before and will want more and trying the Black soon also.
Smoke time: 40 min
Score 9 out of 10
