Aladino Cameroon Lonsdale

Decent ash, stacks up to about .75"... Fairly easy smoke with some sneaky strength. Would pair nicely with post breakfast morning coffee.

Right off the bat I get a marijuana aftertaste on my palate. Light carbonation like bite on the retrohale with some nutty notes fighting through. Creamy smoke that is a bit numbing on the palate. Fairly complex with notes of graham cracker, nuts, cream, roast and bread all bouncing around with a slightly acidic finish.

Complexity begins to fade. Starts off with notes of sweet cream, cut off sharply by a rich, earthy spice and slightly resinous finish. End of third features light notes of ginger root beer ending with a funky cheese like palate (mouthfeel, not necessarily cheese flavor).

Mellow out. Hints of soda still there but lighter. Finishes more roasty with a light cafe roast finish on palate.
