Tabak Especial Dulce

[winston]

This is only like my 3rd review still not sure if I'm doing it good.

Tabak Especial Dulce
Size: 4 3/4" x 46 Corona
Tobacco: Nicaraguan Criollo (filler), Sumatra (binder), Connecticut Shade (wrapper)
Price: $4.99
infused with Nicaraguan estate-grown coffee

I'm not normally one for infused cigars anymore but I saw this and thought I would give it a try. General appearance was good no soft spots. Prelight aroma very nice light tobacco scent taste sweet cap as with all Drew Estates but not overly sickening sweet either. Good flavors through out I don't drink coffee so not sure of any coffee flavors that were infused with it, but didn't notice the normal flavors I'm use to from the Criollo tobacco. All in all it was a nice smooth mild cigar.

Thanks Winston. I've been looking to try the Negra version of these.

And not all Drew Estates are infused or have sweetened caps. Isla Del Sol, and Tabak Especial are infused with coffe and have sweetened caps. Java is infused with coffee but doesn't have a sweetened cap. Naturals aren't infused but have a sweetened cap. And ACID's are infused and some have sweetened caps I believe.

He makes some great non-infused cigars. Liga Privada No. 9 is said to be a very good cigar, though I've yet to try it, same with the Chateau Real. He also makes La Vieja Habana which are a good quality stick at cheap prices.

Nice review, my wife had the negra a few weeks ago, she made some of the same comments about it having a very subtle coffee flavor and the cap not being overly sweet.

Great review I have about 15 of these resting in the humi.

Not to be negative.

I found this to be too sweet. I like the subtle sweet cap on the 92RP and Flor De Oliva but this was too sweet for me I could not finish it.

I really really wanted to like it since I am a huge coffee lover.
