Drew Estate Kahlua corona Review

I don't smoke too many flavored cigars, but I enjoy the Kahlua cigarillos every once in a while. So I figured I'd give the coronas a try.

Drew Estate Kahlua Corona 5X42

Wrapper: Connecticut Shade
Binder: Sumatran
Filler: Nicaraguan

Construction: Nice smooth wrapper with no large veins. Firm to the touch. Nicely done cap.

Prelight: Nice tobacco aroma with just a subtle hint of Kahlua. It had a sweetened tip, but i've got kind of a sweet tooth, so I enjoyed that. Nice easy draw.

Burn: Lit very easily. Somewhat irregular at times, easily corrected. Firm light grey ash that held over an inch and a half before falling.

Smoking Notes: Right off the bat, a very smooth and creamy smoke with nice subtle hints of Kahlua. Not overbearing like some flavoreds. The flavor stayed consistent for the first half. The tobacco and coffee flavors picked up in the second half. Burned down to about an inch. Burned a little hot at the end, but I was smoking a little fast.

Overall impression: I thoroughly enjoyed this smoke. So smooth and creamy. The aroma in the air was incredible. Almost like pipe tobacco. It was very mild in strength, but medium-full in flavor. Awesome.

Sweet(!) review, Rocky. We do well, in sales, with this line at Famous. Quality product. And it does smell a little less offensive to some people, so that's good too!

I've had the Kahlua torpedos and cigarillos. For a flavored cigar, they are quite good.

I have never tried a flavored cigar but have read some good stuff about them here. I have to add this one to my must try list. Good review Nick.
