It sends up just enough scent to remind you why you lit a cigar instead of doing one more thing on your list. Whatever was buzzing around in your head a few minutes ago starts to slide off to the sides.
Flavor and Character
Without you really noticing when it happened it turns from a simple distraction into something closer to a small ritual and what felt like a quick break stretches naturally into a longer sit. A little further along the smoke thickens and carries more weight on the palate showing a line of warm spice over a simple, grounded tobacco core. It’s not flashy, but it feels honest. While you’re leaning back a little farther than before you realize you’re timing your thoughts between draws instead of checking your watch and the cigar asks for nothing more than a little of your attention.
