Smoked a real treat last night. This was a gift from a friend from UK, and it was an absolute privilege to smoke this cigar. Deep and rich cedar with floral notes and some sweet spice. Absolutely smooth as butter! I don't typically do a lot of retrohale because it typically irritates my nose. I usually only expel about 10% of the smoke out the nose. Not this time! I was able to retrohale entire draws with no bite at all. It burned perfectly and slowly. The wrapper was slightly damaged by the head before I fired it up so after I removed the band, the wrapper fell off. I did not care. The flavors were still incredible!
