Pre-light: Hefty, firm, slightly toothy dark wrapper. Good looking black and silver double band bridged together. Robust tobacco aroma. Spicy taste to the wrapper.

The burn: Never even, but never a problem. I let it rest quite a bit and didn’t have to relight or touch up.

The taste: Licorice, chocolate, a mite of leather and cedar in the background. A consistent touch of spice for the length of the cigar.

Over all: This one sat in the humi for some time…forgot that I had it put back. This is the first one MX2 that I didn’t have draw problems with, the rest did it well too in smoothing and marrying the flavors.
