X-FACTOR

This is a great cigar Whiskey and has an assertive elegance — treat yourself and your friends.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, medium bronze color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of baking spices, cereal, treacle, red apple, and dried fruits with supporting notes of mocha and honey. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering a cereal-driven core with supporting flavors of cinnamon, oak, earth, fruitcake, leather, and baked apple. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and substantially balanced with a meaty texture.
