Very smooth, bold and intense is how I would sum up its flavor profile. No harshness, bitterness or metallic tastes. Just pure smooth and bold flavors. The wrapper gives you a nice honey like sweetness on your lips while you get an intense smooth and creamy peppery flavor inside. Now I know we’ve all had that tobacco high from other full bodied cigars. Cigars that you are advised not to smoke on a empty stomach or you will get that light headed almost sickly feeling. While you do get that light headed part its a very pleasant light headiness and is absent of any sickly feelings. I really felt my palette was unprepared and unworthy to partake in this heavenly stogie.
