Another sampler. A new favorite!

First let me explain "sampler". Whenever I stop by a local shop in person, I like to pick up 3 cigars I haven't tried before, that either the tobacconist or another customer recommends.

I picked up one of these in the "natural" wrapper which is a bit oilier. Unburnt, it smelled wonderful and sweet. Very clean presentation. The cap popped right off using my knife, with no unravelling.

Coffee, woodsy, sweet. No bite, but full bodied. Burned evenly and beautifully, requiring no touchups or relights. Had to break out my cigar spear, because I wanted to smoke this one until my nose hairs were gone.

Amazing. Gonna stock up.

I don't smoke many cigars, but your description has me wanting.

It'd be a great one to revisit the habit with.
