Wrapper is smooth some vein is obvious

Not much on pre-light sniff or draw, the feel is a bit spongeyat the foot up to about the half way mark.

Once lit however an immediate sweetness is evident on the lips, and initial draw gives off some notable spice.  what also becomes very obvious is the amount of smoke this baby produces, awesome.  The spice gives way to an earthy flavor after the first couple of puffs.

About an inch in and the burn is straght, with a nice grey ash.  Body is medium to full, strength is full.

The stogie burned quick from start to the first 2.5 inches, maybe due to the loose roll, but straight as an arrow.

Taste so far has been straight forward, earthy, with a sweetness left on the lips.  Not much complexity, but a good taste overall.

About midway through this cigar and still burn ing evenly , and has slowed down to a normal burn rate.  A bit of ginger root like flavor left on the palate is detectable.

The finish on this stogie lingers.

The overall flavor on this cigar is smooth, earthy, some ginger and a very small spicey black pepper component.

Burn is even, starting quick and then slowing down to normal or average brun rate.
