CH Headley Grange Drumstick

Notes: Somewhat ugly Sumatra wrapper, quarter inch short and slightly under 38 ring. Flavors of cedar, caramel, bread, coriander and cumin, something vegetal and white pepper. A constant bitterness develops in the first third and persists for the duration. Great complexity and transitions, but this blend did not work for me in a lancero format.

Smoking time: One hour, nine minutes

Rating: Three stars
