Davidoff Demi Tasse Cigar - 1 Single
by simon
What a lovely little 10 - 15 minute smoke this was. The amount of smoke from this fella puts to shame some bigger cigars I have recently smoked.
I was surprised with this cigar and will surely get more for those times you only have a few spare minutes.

A fantastic 30 minute smoke, gorgeous cigar, have been smoking these for years.

I'm easing my way back into cigars after a on/off 10 year hiatus. I don't smoke anymore so they sort of fell to the wayside and bar a few sticks in holiday over the years I've not really indulged. Since the price of Cubans has gone up quite a lot in the last 10 years I decided to dip my toe in the 'New World' arena of smokes. This cigar was my first try and I was very pleasantly surprised. First off, clearly been stored perfectly. It was springy yet firm to the touch and smelt great. On first light it was quite bitter and I could tell that there was an underlying flavour there but the bitterness was rather over powering. However, after about 5 mins the cigar completely changed and became almost toffee/caramel tasting and really got better the further down I smoked it. The last third was powerful and rich, very woody with hints of earth and tasted like I was smoking nature, which was incredible. I have another one with the darker wrapper which I'll have at a party next week. I only hope it is as good.

All I can say is that I must of got a bad one. On the cold draw it was very tight.
After correctly toasting the foot and with it being in my humidor for a couple of weeks at 69Rh, it was nearly impossible to draw.
Full flavoured and medium to full in strength but I persisted with it for 15 minutes it was nearly impossible to draw so I cut of the lit end about an inch and from both ends used my perfect draw multiple times.
One time as I removed the perfect draw it pulled out a very long thick tobacco leaf vein of which I had never seen before.
I persisted with the smoke and the pull was slightly better but still difficult to say the least.
It was only after I removed the band did it start to burn evenly and the draw became how it should of been from the start.
It was when I was encroaching the nub did this cigar become enjoyable, so yes I was unlucky to get such a bad one.

I love these. Fabulous cigar. One of the most beautiful presented and with that dark wrapper looks and smokes extremely well. I wouldn’t recommend it to new smokers but more for the seasoned cigar smokers. I’m a huge fan of the Drew Estate brand for the fuller bodied cigars and this one being top tier in that department. The only thing that I don’t like is that they look so good sitting in the humidor that I feel bad to smoke one haha. So they do need to be replaced so if you’re like me. Order more than two at a time.

I was a little disappointed with this one. I had high expectations but was really not impressed. I smoked this a while ago and left a very deep impression as I clearly remember thinking that I won’t get one of those again. Maybe I just got a bad one or needed more time in the humidor as I can’t say I enjoyed it as much as I was expecting too. Below to aversive for me this one.
