Bow Tie Cigars Copper Label Medium 3/7/15


Appearance 
The wrapper has a milk chocolate mottled look to it. The seems are tight and there are several prominent veins.

Aroma 
Faint hay aroma on the wrapper. A nice molasses aroma at the foot.

Prelight Draw
I pick up some of the molasses and also some floral notes.

1st
The 1st several draws are a bit snug. After several more draws I start to notice some spice notes joining the mix. The spice at this point is like allspice(a mild spice). The burn is off about 22*. The ash is salt & pepper gray and tight. At the 3/4" mark the draw is beginning to open up more to my liking. Late in the 1st/3rd I'm noticing a tangy note and the spice had mellowed prior to the tangy notes. A very flavorful 1st/3rd.

2nd
At the start the burn is self correcting. The flavors from the 1st/3rd continue into the 2nd. The spice comes back strong but more of s cardomom(India spice). The  burn has fully self corrected and the draw has loosened up to a nice draw by the midway point of the cigar. The spice kind of comes and goes which is a nice twist. Starting to notice some nutty notes. Roasted nuts. 

Final/3rd
The strength has remained medium throughout. No touch ups or relights were needed. A very flavorful and enjoyable cigar from start to finish! GoGetchasome™!! Great cigar Billie!
