Had to try this one even though it had only been in the humidor for a couple days. This stick had a slightly oily, tawny brown wrapper with some rather prominent veins. It had a nice, sweet pre-light smell to it. After lighting, it reminded me of a Punch, with a nice mild to medium body and sweet smoke with a little spice.
The cigar had a nice burn and a good draw and overall I felt it had nutty flavors. There also seemed to be a little citrus bite, and I began to get maybe a nutmeg flavor. After the first third, I thought I could taste leather and caramel.
Overall, a good smoke, but I thought the finish was a little harsh throughout the whole length of this stick.
