Diamond Crown

Always a solid smoke! A very elegant cigar in general. Primary notes consist of dark chocolate, cedar, and some molasses. The pepper very gradually increases but stays balanced. Not overly smokey while producing a ton of flavor.

Drew Estate

Such a fantastic blend in the Privada lineup. The profile consists of cedar along with some light pepper tones and sweet spices. The construction was very solid with a dark oily wrapper. The burn was almost flawless once it got going, enabling a good slow smoke.

Foundation Cigar Co.

Second review, about the same result. As before, it still had a very open draw. Took a bit for the flavors to produce, but when they did, it was full of creamy wood and intense nuttiness. Due to spongey construction, the burn kept running, requiring several corrections.

Montecristo

Consistent review, now after 21 months rest. The profile is full of chocolate, coffee, and a light mix of pepper & spice. The burn remained fairly even. Flavors stayed true without any bitterness, allowing rich tobacco tones to shine through. The draw was still airy and open.
