My Uzi Weighs a Ton +11
First off, what a dumbass name for a cigar. They are running out of good cigar names just like they are running out of good band names.
I saw these on sale last year at FS for like $52/bundle of 10 with free shipping. The other cigars in this line are way too fat for me, but this one fit the bill at 5.5" and 52 RG. I let my bundle rest for a few weeks and tried one of these, and honestly it was terrible. I was digging through the humi for something new tonight and decided to give these another shot. And what a difference 6 months make. This is actually a very tasty smoke. Fuller side of medium "strength", nice sweet flavor on the draw, woodsy/toasty through the nose, and a tangy tobacco finish. This cigar smells and tastes like a CIGAR. In fact, I think I just heard my neighbor slam their window shut in disgust. :banger About 1/3 in, a very nice coconut flavor has crept in. I can taste it in the nose and also on the finish. I am diggin' this cigar. I'm already looking on FS and C-bid to score some more. Good burn, good draw. *Side note* I've experienced very few construction problems with Drew Estate cigars. Even the short filler La Vieja Habana have always performed well. A little past halfway...still tasting the coconut, but it has taken on a toasty flavor too. Tangy finish. Last 1/3....coconut is gone. Toasty leather is all I can say. Let 'er die at around 1". Final thoughts...great smoke! I'm glad I gave it a second chance. |

Re: My Uzi Weighs a Ton +11
Ohhh. that explains it. Completely turned me off trying the cigar. I think Black Steel is a better song and would probably be a better name, too. So the cigar is worth trying?
This might be off topic, but I've had hard time dealing with the Drew Estate stuff: the tacky names, the big sizes, the goofy promo pictures. I've tried the Natural Dirt and Undercrown. The Dirt, I remember being annoyed. The UC was.. okay. Never tried the L.P. which is what everyone talks about.. |

Good review... Kinda like the tactical name, though. MUWAT sounds like the stick is ready to open a can of whoopass on ya! Great cigar. :sl

I wasn't impressed with them at first. Just shows what a little rest can do.

Re: My Uzi Weighs a Ton +11
Apparently I had one of these left after all this time. It will be interesting to smoke this thing.
Looking back at my initial review. The coconut flavor I described is gone. The dominant flavor now is a woodsy flavor. After 4.5 years, much of the bite has gone out of these. This cigar is quite mild, even at the halfway point. It's a good smoke, but I am kinda glad I never scored any more of these. I have a pretty good stash of cigars, so a lot of them end up sleeping in the humi for several years. Last 1/3 of the cigar is pretty much the same. Time has erased most of the flavor. Muted woodsy flavor, not much else. Chalk up the MUWAT as a NC that does not age well. |

I'm glad I am not aging any then, Mark. :D
