I was quite disappointed with this smike. A prominent stem near the head and the cap unraveling right after lighting made for a terrible draw and uneven burn. Despite these construction flaws, I managed to salvage it with a little saliva, and the earthy, subtly spicy notes still offered an enjoyable, albeit brief, experience since I couldn't smoke it to the nub. Ultimately, while the flavor had potential, the poor construction significantly detracted from the overall enjoyment.
