Behind the Scenes III is a box-pressed cigar that showcases Meerapfel’s understated approach to blending, where balance and elegance take precedence over full disclosure. Finished in a refined Connecticut Shade wrapper, the cigar is composed of select tobaccos from the Dominican Republic, with certain elements deliberately kept undisclosed.
 
Mild-to-medium in strength, BTS III opens with soft cedar, cream, and a touch of white pepper, gradually revealing toasted nuts, light cocoa, and subtle sweetness through the middle. The box-pressed shape contributes to a cool, steady burn and a smooth, comfortable draw. The finish is clean and gentle, marked by coffee, light earth, and lingering creaminess.
 
Approachable and polished, Behind the Scenes III is ideal for those who appreciate nuance and restraint, offering a thoughtful smoke that rewards attention without demanding it.
