The build was tight, a little looser at the head. There were a few prominent veins that you really couldn't see because of the dark color. It had a nice bit of oil on it
The draw was a little tight, pre-draw left a spicy flavor in my mouth. The light and burn were very nice, no problems whatsoever. The first half left a lot of spice in the back of my throat, but it definitely wasn't overwhelming. It had a clear chocolate and earthy taste which transitioned into a very smooth leathery flavor. It left a sweet but savory taste on my lips. As I got towards the end of the cigar I tasted hints of licorice. I hate licorice, but it was pleasant and sweetened things up nicely. After I finished up I had a sugary taste in my mouth, much like the oils left on my lips.
I heard this was a "strong" cigar. I found it to be pretty smooth aside from the spice in the back of my throat. The chocolate flavor with subtle sweetness is something I really enjoy. Overall I loved this smoke, one of the top sticks I've had. I'll probably pick up a 5-er and if it sticks I'll look into getting a box of rp's x-outs.
