Review Notes: Maybe it's called "Tempus" because it takes so long to wake up? It has a beautiful appearance. Dark, firm, and veiny. The bands are pretty, and it smells mild and sweet. Lights nicely, but the draw is super-tight, and the flavors don't kick in until half-way thru the smoke. The middle offers some roasted peppers, with lots of tobacco. Then comes a quick sour-apple/cherry, but that's short-lived. It's a satisfying smoke if you pull like crazy, but the flavors are almost too harsh for the effort.
