“Have you Kaplowitz’d to-day?”


Doumitt Oro Negro

>>>

NOTES: Brash & bold. Overtones are rigidly delivered espresso beans and charred hardwood. Black peppercorn singe. Undertones are an almost hidden dried compost/barnyard thing. Occasional leathery bits ebb&flow hither&thither stiffly-so. Second-half features a flame-broiled burger, charred, which stays & steers.

An extraordinarily purposeful profile, delivered on a thick line. Not complex, but not trying to be. For a ham-fisted thing, it does end quite clean after a bittersweet finish of long-length. There's a dark chocolate note found there.

Excellently built. Great draw. Very smoky off each end. Room-note is less than seductive, however, as some ashy alkaline bits hit the schnoz. If you want a strong cigar... if you scoff at refinement... and if you desire a cruise control burn. This is that, inexpensively.

FINAL GRADE: B
A 90-100 B 80-89 C 70-79 D 60-69 F 0-59
