Blind Cigar Review: D’Crossier | Selection 512 Lancero

"Overall this cigar was a pepper bomb and very one dimensional. There were issues with the burn possibly because it was too dry. May benefit from time in the humidor. Will not try this as it is now." -Sandeep (Djangos)

Blind Cigar Review: Drew Estate | Nica Rustica Belly

“This larger vitola benefited from a nice change up of flavors. Although there were no stars, the subtle nuances held my interest for ninety minutes. My biggest issue was an inconsistent and loose draw that made it difficult to pull out a wider range of tastes. I would try this one again based on the flavors.” –Gregg (McGreggor57)

"I enjoyed the change in personality of this cigar. The beginning was a nice start with a sweet smell and flavor only to give way to a bolder, bit stronger flavoring. A peppery flavor emerged in the middle but dissipated towards the end. Overall, a pleasant experience, none like I have ever experienced." -Eric (smalls29)

"I really enjoyed this cigar. The chocolate undertones in the front were balanced beautifully by the mildness and cohesive flavors in the final third. I would recommend this to a friend who desires a mild, yet complex enough smoke." -Kent (Throck)

"Overall, this was not a bad cigar if you like a pepper bomb or one dimensional flavor. I did like the draw and the larger amounts of thick creamy smoke." -Craig (WyldKnyght)

"This a wonderful cigar with just the right amount of strength. I was enticed by traditional Maduro and an overall earthiness. This is box worthy to say the least and it will not be the last time I smoke this slow burning beauty." -Jack (Jack_H)

"Wow. Once i got past the slow start, the cigar really opened up. Medium to full flavor and just a tremendous profile that balanced well off of each other. Nicely done. Grab these, let some sit, and watch them grow into something truly special." -Steve (ThaGreatWazoo)

"Nice transitions of background flavors made me forget there wasn't any real leader with this cigar. The profile was well balanced despite not having a wow factor. There was a silkiness in the smoke that made for a nice mouth feel and very enjoyable smoke. I would certainly pick up a few to keep on hand." -Gregg (McGreggor57)
