Pre draw was easy, leaving some spice on the lips.
1\3; A smooth draw yielding plenty of cool mildly flavoured smoke, perhaps slightly milder than expected, but a good start. Ash fell at 1 Inch.
2\3; This is now definitely a medium strength smoke, with flavours of wood and spice coming from the still cool smoke, burn is very good. Am liking this one.

3\3; Draw slightly firmer but not a problem, flavour and strength as before, Smoke still very cool, now getting a slight menthol aftertaste. Smoked to just over an inch getting quite a nicotine hit.
Conclusion; This is a well made cigar giving some flavour and satisfaction. It smoked well through the entire 70 minutes with a good burn, and plenty of cool smoke right to the end. After the half way mark the flavours did not really progress which is a pity. However, for the price I think this is a good value everyday smoke, I have 2 left and will be happy to leave them in the bottom of the humidor, probably would not get any more though.
