Seriously though, I bought a few for a friend when I was back home because I know he likes them and that way I'd have someone to smoke with. Had one left when it was time to come back here and he doesn't have a humidor, so I took it to smoke myself soon.
The best comparison I can make is it was like a $9 swisher sweet. Really, that's what it tasted like was a swisher sweet, but not as good. Good is a relative term obviously.
I finished far less of the Java than I did the cremosa I had this past year. I think I took 10 puffs, and the last 9 were forced.
Uh... I'll never make that mistake again. Drew estate couldn't have gotten any lower in my book, but Patel just dropped down to the lowest level of my ratings for being involved with that cigar. |
Try the Drew Estate "Naturals" line. They are not infused/flavored, though some have sweetened tips (easy enough to wash off, or just smoke it backwards). The Root (and to a degree the Dirt) have a great chocolatey/cocoa flavor to them, but are all natural tobacco. He uses some pipe tobacco and other unique things in these to give them such interesting flavors.
