On the palate, this cigar reveals its character in three distinct thirds. The beginning opens with fruity and creamy flavors, while the middle subtly introduces herbal notes and moderate intensity. In the finish, the aromas concentrate around wood and grass, hinting at a slight bitterness, characteristic of a smooth and pleasant transition, never becoming unpleasant.
