Very clearly divided into two halves. Predaw: Spicy cinnamon flavor I associate with Montecristo especially number 2s. Very nice draw. First half: started out coffee with a bit of cream then transitioned to cocoa at 10 minutes into almost entirely cocoa at 20 minutes. Second half: by 25 minutes increasingly cream flavor and almost entirely cream from 30 minutes until the end. Retrohale went from a clear and strong tobacco that transitioned to liquorice and finally toasted grains. Wonderful smoke output throughout. Slightly uneven burn I had to touch up 3 times. Slightly disappointed it never had that cinnamon flavor from the predaw. If any spice it was more nutmeg but pretty faint. Just over an hour to the nub. Would rate high 80s due to the very one dimensional cream of the second half. Pictures are prelit, coffee part, cocoa part, cream part and nub still tasting of cream. Edit: My first review. Anxious to see how this box evolves over time.
