Construction and Draw
The Cuban wrapper is silky, medium-brown, and expertly applied over a premium Cuban binder and filler blend, providing a firm, even draw that produces creamy, aromatic smoke; the cold draw reveals nuances of sweet hay, mild cocoa, and gentle spice, while the burn line remains straight and self-correcting, forming a firm, pale-gray ash indicative of meticulous craftsmanship and superior construction
