Davidoff Demi Tasse Cigar - 1 Single
by Matthew
This is a great little smoke, a little harsher on the pallet than i expected but perfect to accompany a coffee. As you would expect from the brand its well constructed, smokes well with a perfect draw and makes a nice change to the more common short smokes. Will definitely purchase again.

Its a decent smoke, lasted around 15 minutes and held together. however while smooth it lack any real taste, a nice relaxing smoke but nothing about it stood out.

Just finished one of these off in the sun with a cold beer and it was outstanding. A creamy flavour with a sweetish aftertaste, almost nutty. Absolutely perfect before a meal where you dont want a huge flavour to be left lingering in your mouth. Very smooth draw with plenty of thick, white smoke. 40 minutes of pure pleasure. Definitely worth keeping a few of these in the humidor

What a cigar! I got a good 45 minutes out of this stick. Goes ridiculously well with a Greek/Arabic/Turkish coffee. Smooth creamy flavours. Highly recommend.

Having previously had an unpleasant experience with a couple of Media Corona’s (impossible draw, uneven burn) before, I tried one again the night before last as it had arrived as the mystery cigar as part of the C.gars monthly subscription. This time, I’m happy to report, there was a much improved outcome.
The 44 x 90mm vitola is the smallest of the Cuban Montecristo family but certainly looks the part - it normally comes presented in a unique sliding tin of 5. This one proved to be an easy 30 minutes, delivering plentiful smoke output and a very pleasant aroma. Strength was upper medium.
Used a simple punch cut which was ideal for the RG and it was easy enough to fire up. I did however find the overall taste not particularly complex and in my view the cigar came across as a little undemanding but still enjoyable smoke. Probably not too surprising given the relatively short size. That said, I did detect a definite caramel sweetness lingering in the background which was rather pleasant.
This example has had a month or two in the humi at 69• which I think helped and i

I loved this cigar. It was an even burn, a smooth draw, great construction and the flavour was deep and robust throughout with a peppery second third. I got a good hour out of it and I loved every minute of it.
