The tingle on the retrohale; usually strongest in the first third.
Sugars from the wrapper and long-leaf filler; often on the lips.
The soft, rounded texture that keeps a smoke easy on the palate.

How to keep it
General humidor guidance for this cigar, based on its wrapper, strength, ring gauge and packaging.
Hold the box at 65–70% relative humidity at 65–70°F (18–21°C). Steady humidity matters far more than the exact number — swings are what crack wrappers.
Two to three weeks of rest after delivery lets the box settle back to your humidor before the first smoke.
A medium blend like this holds well for a year or two; longer aging mostly smooths the finish rather than changing the flavour.
Age them in their own box where possible — the cedar keeps the cigars marrying together instead of taking on the flavour of everything else in the humidor.
