Maybe a quicker post, maybe not. I ramble on a lot so who knows? Hahaha! Anyway, been on a tear with Davidoff brands and I got a box of these a while back. About 10-12 months of humidor time on these. Concurrently working a grille while on this, so not solely concentrating on it... I used a big punch this time as I confess I messed up with the little one. Construction and draw are, as is usual for Davidoff brands, great. Prelight draw is mainly cedar, a little musty barnyard, and nutmeg. First third is smooth cedar and a smidge of pepper. Dry earth on the front end and a musty, grassy sensation on the retro that I've gotten used to. Burn is even and smoke thick and white. Second third adds some nuttiness to the cedar and the musty barnyard lingers on the nose. There's hints of vanilla, but it's hard to pinpoint. Smoke remains white and airy and burn stays straight. Not much transitions here but the smoke production picks way up. Final third is more of the same musty flavor with a bit more pepper picking up and stronger grass notes. My empty stomach means I start getting a bit of the nicotine buzz early but it's not bad. The nutmeg from the cold draw finally makes an appearance and gives a nice bit of variety to an otherwise consistent cigar. It finishes out as consistent as it started and at a neat 45 minutes.

Mild. Smooth and creamy with a bit of sweet. Flavors of cedar nut and a touch of pepper. Burn great, draw great.
