Tabak Especial Dulce

Drew Estate, famous for its best-selling flavor infused cigars such as ACID, Natural, and Kahlua, has launched Tabak Especial Coffee infused cigars. Fair Trade Nicaraguan coffee beans are used to add mocha flavors to the premium tobaccos. The Tabak Especial Dulce line, very similar in taste to the popular –now discontinued– Kahlua brand, uses a light brown Connecticut shade wrapper.

My Thoughts

Okay, descriptions out of the way here are my thoughts, first the Vino. This was supposd to be a full bodied cigar. In my limited experience I have only had a draw or two from a full bodied cigar and this did not seem like one. For being in the $10+ range, I wasn’t overly impressed. I do have a couple others to try so I will hold my final opinion until I have had another. I was expecting a little more flavor to come through and was a little let down.

The Tabak on the other hand truely exceeded my expectations. This could be due to the fact that I did not really have any serious expecations to start with. It had a very good flavor. It stayed pretty true all the way through except for the last 1/3 to 1/4 or so. It sort of leveled off a little bit and lost some of the flavors but was still a very good smoke.
