The wrapper is a deep, dark shade of brown and smells very sweet pre-light. The first few draws are excellent. There is a long finish and the retrohale is smooth. Throughout the first third of the cigar, it&#8217;s a little difficult to pin down specific notes, but it&#8217;s enjoyable. Construction is great and it&#8217;s burning like a champ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>About 30 minutes into the cigar, some nuttiness begins to come to the forefront. It&#8217;s quite tasty. This continues on through the second third with some cinammon tones entering the mix. It&#8217;s not a super complex cigar as these flavors remain pretty consistent throughout the rest of the cigar. Near the end of the cigar I do get a little bit of minty, grassy notes, but these are barely noticable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Construction notes: <\/strong>Great construction! The burn line got a little wavy at times but corrected itself. The cigar did not go out at all and required no touchups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When to smoke it: <\/strong>I think this cigar would work well in the afternoon or evening. It&#8217;s firmly medium bodied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"767\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2-767x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3228\" srcset=\"http:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2-767x1024.jpg 767w, http:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2-768x1025.jpg 768w, http:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2-150x200.jpg 150w, http:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2-450x600.jpg 450w, http:\/\/canadacigarforum.com\/homev3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/salvation2.jpg 921w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Size:&nbsp;6\u2033 x 60Origin:&nbsp;NicaraguaWrapper:&nbsp;Ecuadorian HabanoBinder:&nbsp;HondurasFiller:&nbsp;NicaraguaSmoking Time:&nbsp;75 minutesBody:&nbsp;MediumStrength:&nbsp;MediumPrice:&nbsp;$11 First impressions, this is a big stick! 60 ring guage isn&#8217;t really my thing normally but this stick was recommended to me recently at a B&amp;M while I was visiting Portland, OR.
