Undercrown Shade is an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapped beauty. Complexity is king in this stick and that comes through before you even light up. The cold draw will greet your taste buds with notes of creamy vanilla and rich earth. As you get into this smoke, the sweet vanilla and a creaminess will take over your palate with a hint of pepper in the background that plays off everything else perfectly. The final third introduces a cinnamon like spice which pushes all the other flavors back slightly and begins to take hold.

Length: 4"
Ring Gauge: 32
Strength: Medium-Full Bodied
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade
Filler: Nicaraguan Criollo & Corojo
