Band: Satisfactory
Wrapper: Very oily/smooth
This is my favorite cigar yet I never did a review. Time to set the record straight.
The band is rather simple but the blue color is very distinctive. The wrapper, a Jalapa shade, is very smooth anf silky.

The ash is holding well but after two inches, I'm not taking any chances.

Nuts/beans
About half-way through the cigar gets a bit nuttier and somewhat earthy. All rather subtle, though.

The middle part of this cigar was actually quite boring but in the final third, the nutty flavors come out in full force.
