Great construction, with a decent burn line. Did not require a touch up but I did have to roll the cigar often to keep the burn line more even. (Probably because I was floating down the American River on a tube while enjoying this cigar) The smell of the wrapper is decadent and reminded me of the smell of fresh Beechnut. Wonderful sweetness with notes of ripe fruit off the initial light up. 4/10 pepper on the retrohale, 2/10 on the palette in the first third. The sweetness remains through the second third with notes of chocolate. As a chewing tobacco fan this cigar hit the spot for flavor for me.
