A La Carte Review: RASCC

[RDB]

From a clearance box with code ESL AGO 17, nicely rested at 67F 63RH.

Flash makes it look oilier and darker than natural light, where it was a touch under Colorado in colour. Sparked up easily and burned great with no touch ups. After a first few cedary puffs this settled down to the classic RA profile: raisins, milk chocolate, milky coffee, a touch of burnt toast. As it burnt down the peppery spice built and the sweetness receeded. Full of flavour, and I’d say a little over medium bodied. Paired with Flor de Cana 25 rum, which worked very well. I smoked about 2/3 of it in around 25 minutes: a perfect quick smoke and grrreat value.
