The middle section delivers cellulose and seasoned wood. The is also a roasted aroma. Spices are still well present in the background and the aftertaste has a medium long persistence. Strength doesn’t change (3.5/5).
In the last part of the smoke, the aromatic profile doesn’t change that much. Wood is confirmed, as well as the roasted notes. Spices remains in the background, together with a touch of earth. Strength is still a little above the medium (3.5/5).
