Box arrived 3.27
Third cigar smoked 5.27
Prelight: nice sheen; excellent construction; perfect draw
1st Third: perfect burn; excellent draw; wood, tobacco, floral and stronger cherry flavor than previous examples; medium; no harshness
2nd Third: burn and draw remain perfect; flavors are still present throughout; solid medium; no harshness
Final Third: burn and draw remain perfect through the end - no touch ups needed; cherry and floral flavors have diminished somewhat, but still present, mostly wood and tobacco now; slightly over medium; no harshness
Overall: solid construction, burn and draw; flavor profile improved over the first two examples; harshness in the final third was not present in this example
Score: 92
Overall Study: Was really interesting to see the changes over the past 60 days. Flavor profile got more complex as the floral and cherry really came out more abundantly after some time down. Harshness that was present in the final third of the first two examples had disappeared.
