Mehari's Java

For a quick morning smoke, these little cigarillos burn evenly and pack just enough earthy richness without being harsh. The subtle cocoa undertone makes the draw feel smoother than most everyday options.

The coffee and cocoa notes really come through on the draw without being too sweet, and the mild-to-medium strength keeps it smooth down to the last third. Burn was even for the whole 20 minutes, which is exactly what I want for a weekday break.

The 4x23 size is perfect for a quick break, and that subtle cocoa-earth balance keeps it interesting without ever getting harsh. It's become my go-to when I want something smooth but not boring, and the Dutch craftsmanship really shows in the even burn.
