Brevas

The first third gives a mild cinnamon spice on the back of the tongue and throat. The smoke itself is a mild to medium strength feeling slightly oily on the tongue with tastes of roasted nuts, a touch of vanilla, cedar wood, and grassiness. There’s a very clean finish left on the palate that is somewhat short.

The second third, the draw works rather well with a good amount of medium-strength smoke coming through. The spice is somewhat mild in the smoke and turns to more of a white pepper spice on the throat, possibly due to the smoke flowing through better. Flavors are consistent with the finish continuing to be very clean with a bit of tannic, semi-lasting on the palate. The burn gets quite uneven at one point, however, corrects itself well with a dark gray, compact ash forming and holding strong.

In the final third, the draw becomes smoother and tight once again making a good smoke through.
