## Nice cool October night…

Collaboration between Jonathan Drew and Metallica guitarist James Hetfield. Once James stopped doing drugs and killing his liver with alcohol, he turned his additive tendencies to cigars. I can relate to the cigars! This stick has been in regular production for a few years now and I’m still buying them! Maduro goodness, nuttiness, soft leather… not like a catchers mitt from the 50s. Some ginger and a little brown pepper… ramps up in the final third to a black pepper. Good cigar that can be had at a reasonable price$.
