Not a bad cigar at all, just not my kind of smoke. Cedar/pepper/light spice/ with maybe a faint cocoa note toward the end. Great flavors, I just personally prefer a more bold cigar. Had to touch up the burn several times, and had to relight as well. It was canoeing on one side and actually went out, twice. First time that’s happened to me. Could have just been bad luck on my side! Might try again one day.
