PRA JUL10

?Opening remarks: Medium brown wrapper. Nice light sheen. Aroma is big off this Piramides. Sweet aged tobacco, hay, little coffee. Can’t wait any longer. Let’s make a V-cut & toast that foot. First few draws reveal full flavors of sweet, woody, floral, & light coffee man. Razor sharp burn. A groovy smoke show with a beautiful tangy aroma that tickles the nose. Makes you immediately put those feet up and sit back for the ride.

?End of First 1/3: The pairing with the Guinness Draught Stout actually has worked well. I was concerned it might drown out some lighter nuances, but the full flavor is in cruise control on this one. More of the same from the first draw. This is a mild to just under medium strength. Just delightful. Let’s head to the beach ? , but it’s not a race. ?

?End of Second 1/3: Through 2/3 of this one, and the burn is still sharp. More of that sweet wood, floral notes, coffee is building to more on the dark side. Still under medium toward mild. We arrived at the beach & I’m kicked back in that hammock man. Just a rocking away in the breeze.?

?Final 1/3 & closing remarks: And just like that, someone turned off the sweetness and floral notes. We have gone full dark espresso with the woody notes hanging around back there. Just a narly 2 hours dude. This is the 4th one of these I’ve smoked from this box. I’m happy to report 3 out of 4 have been exactly like this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As for the classic car comparison. With the mild strength, floral sweet notes, this reminds me of the classic 1969 VW Bus. With a 4cyl, 54hp engine, it was mild, but mesmerizing ride. It wasn’t getting you anywhere in a hurry, but did you really care dude? Just sit back & cruise to the beach. ??‍♂️?
