Aroma is of barnyard, cocoa, new leather and coffee. Cold draw has notes of nutty sweetness and hay with black pepper on the lips. First draw is earthy, cinnamon, charred oak, and pepper spice on the retrohale. By canelsen on August 6 2023 12:39:36 AM

## Nica Rustica Belly

Aroma is of barnyard, cocoa, new leather and coffee. Cold draw has notes of nutty sweetness and hay with black pepper on the lips. First draw is earthy, cinnamon, charred oak, and pepper spice on the retrohale. Into the first third some dark roast coffee notes fall in and a sweet cashew creaminess tames the retrohale slightly. The second third holds the earthiness, coffee, charred oak, and pepper, but some leather, mineral, and cream appear. The nutty notes fade. The abundant smoke has a nice floral aroma. Draw seems a little tight but it's deceiving. When you let the smoke roll it seems like you took a double draw. It also develops some saltiness, which makes it a toffee like flavor profile. Final third carries the notes of the second third with the nuttiness returning. The pepper returns in full strength. A definite bite to the sinuses. Overall a great smoke. Definitely recommend if you like a stick that produces a ton of smoke
