Four Cigars Reviewed in 100 Words vol. III


CATTLE BARON BULL
A muscularly built cigar with a well balanced medium-full profile. Well delivered traditional notes of sweetly piquant cocoa and cedar around a clean tobacco core.

FINAL GRADE
****A-****

DREW ESTATE HERRERA ESTELI
A well-built though softening Toro with straight burn and excellent draw. Sweetly spiced earthen cocoa notes, a fustiness which gets swampy alongside an Americano note.

FINAL GRADE
****B+****

MBOMBAY COROJO OSCURO
A somewhat less than ideally performing Gordo. Medium-full profiled dark fruits and black pepper over Cola and coffee notes, all atop a darkly sweet compost.

FINAL GRADE
****B****

FELIX ASSOULINE SOMETHING SPECIAL
Oak braced coffee and cream'd earth primary, with secondary leathery grains. Muted piquancies. Bittersweet, then bitter mainly. This box-pressed corona had a notably wobbly burn.

FINAL GRADE
****B+****
