My first thought is that this looks like an Intemperance BA XXI, which has long been a favorite of mine within the RoMa Craft Tobac portfolio. The muted, dark brown Brazilian wrapper is very reminiscent of other Intemperance cigars I’ve smoked over the years, though the exposed feet on the cigars seem a tad bit darker than I remember. Aroma from the wrapper is full of barnyard, something that reminds me of wet newspaper and some underlying sweetness. That sweetness comes alive when smelling the foot, as there is brownie-like chocolate, pumpkin seeds and a bit of nutmeg. Cold draws produce lots of sweet cocoa, a bit of fruitiness, white pepper and cinnamon. One sample has a beef jerky-like flavor, though I don’t pick it up in the other two.
