Overall: Construction seemed a bit shoddy. Burn was ragged and probably affected the flavor, particularly in the third third. Nice for the first two thirds. I give it a 2.5 out of 4, and a 6 out of 10.
Construction: One large vein on wrapper. Head is a bit mis-shapened, and cap is ragged. Very mild aroma. VERY firm, hard, with no soft spots.
Prelight: Draws well. Not much in the unlit draw except tobacco and a bit of cedar.
First third: First few puffs are sweet and nutty. Quite nice. Burn a bit ragged. Needed minor attention a few times, and generally corrected itself.
Second third: Continues sweet and nutty with some cedar. Nice sweet finish.
Third third: A bit ashy, still nutty, and still a nice sweet finish.
