Humidor doc R

Good cigar, cold smoke wood and leather. Great cigar for beginners. Starts off with strong taste of leather and moves rapidly to coffee and cream. good constructed cover leaf, Good draw and burns pretty even throughout. Products a short silver ash that breaks off very easy. Smoke volume is ok. At the 1 / 3 point, blends into a nice coffee and cream taste. Super for a relaxing afternoon after with a warm cup of coffee or a highland whiskey . 70 minutes of pleasure, no bitterness and very mild , but there are other cigars on the market as good for a more economical price.

Great cigar , good PLV and a great representative of the Griffin tradition!

For the price , I expected a better overall performance. Has a Dark cover leaf but cracked during the first third of the cigar. Cold smoke smell of grass, pepper and wood. Loosely wrapped with an uneven burn. Smoke volume ok and draw little hard but ok. Ash solid and gray but has to be relite often. Starts off In the first third medium strength with sharp pepper and leather. Milder in the second third with a light cream taste and becomes bitter in the last third. At the 40 minute point, it has a very unpleasure burn grass taste. Priced similar to the Trinidad Vigia but no where as an enjoyable.

For an aged cigar, it's ok but there are lots of far better ones on the market at this price . Construction good somewhat loose, cover leaf very well made. Draw and combustion super, cold smoke grass and pepper. Somewhat uneven burn but the ash is nice and solid . Starts off with strong pepper and grass taste (medium strength at start) pepper taste continues throughout. At the two thirds point of the cigar, there is a breeze of wood and leather but the strong pepper favor overpower them. Pleasure smoke but becomes somewhat bitter at the end.

A nice cigar, but actually overpriced. workmanship and favor ok but not what I expected . Will not be a continued member of my humidor

Nicaragua filler,Ecuador wrapper, sungrown w/veins dark brown. Too Tightly wrapped, which took away from the overall smoking experience. Tones of wood,spice,grass and very light cream. Start out with little cream and mild but increased to a very strong medium after first 1/3. Cover wrapper broke after the first 1/3 and the cigar began to unravel at the 1/2 way point. Stick required a lot of work, went out several times, which totally reduced the overall enjoyment level. Ash was silver and solid but broke after about 1 cm . P/L POOR!!!

Very nice cigar. Wrapper is well made with very nice veins. Combustion initially good but you have to work to keep it burning. In general the burn is very even. The cigar is somewhat tightly wrapped. Lots of smoke. It starts after mild but gains in strength in the 2/3 to a pleasing medium taste. The aroma is very pleasure making it a favorable companion for a round of poker and Brandy or single malt. The price (10+€) is a little high for the amount of overall enjoyment associated with this stick.

In general an ok low cost everyday cigar if you are on a tight budget.. It started off with strong pepper and earth, after several draws a little sweetness was available. The cover leaf torn by v cut and cigar started to unravel but I was able to save the cigar to get at lease 20minutes out of it. The smoke volume was alright. The burn was somewhat uneven but i credit this to the broken cover leaf. This cigar was loosely wrapped and one third the way through the cover broke again. Not a good experience. At the 1/3 mark, i had lost all my joy in this event and i allowed it to burn out. This is the second DT Rothschild that I tried this week. Both experiences were unsatisfactory , the overall construction of this cigar is just poor. There are much better maduro cigars in this price bracket on the market.

This is a nice cigar but just not for me. Clean dark well constructed cover leaf. Draw very good but this one is not for a beginners . Started off with a strong pepper and leather taste, somewhat bitter. Become somewhat milder after the first third but remained medium in strength. Smoke volume is very good but the burn is uneven. Products a very strong grey ash. In general, a pleasing taste for the entire 50+ minutes duration. Turns more bittersweet at the end.

This cigar is very mild . Not very complex, too sweet and creamy. Burn is poor, draw is not bad but not for me.

As a aged short corona , I expected a lot more. Perhaps the two I smoked were from a bad batch but they were both were not very well constructed, cover leaf not finished and the cigar is very loosely wrapped , pre cut and broke down during the course of the 35 minutes smoking duration. Burn is uneven but draw is ok. Starts off medium to strong when lite. Turns bitter to the tongue about half way through . Had to relight it several times and several bits of the cigar core was in my month at each draw. This greatly reduced my ability to enjoy the cigar. The taste was actually unidentifiable, leather and wood tastes came through at times. Smoke volume was ok . This is not a candidate for my humidor.

A great and somewhat milder cigar. Great taste with a strong chocolate and nut taste somewhat creamy at the last 1/3 of the cigar. The ash is excellent and this is a cigar that can be enjoyed from the first to last draw. The workmanship is exceptional as is typical of Romeo y Julieta products. Well worth the price!!! *************** Revised review- ********** the second and third cigars were not as good as the first one. Cover wraps had either holes or were cracked when they came out of the tube . These were far less enjoyable experiences in taste and workmanship and were far below the R y J standard.

I was disappointed with the cigar. It is a middle strength but the total perform is not up to the traditional standard that i expected. No clear taste direction. The burn is uneven and the cover leaf was not faultless. The larger ring in this series are for better constructed. The draw was ok but not exceptional. Was not a good experience. Price to cost ratio poor! Perhaps i was unlucky but the two that I ordered were very substandard.

This is a accessible cigar, if you like a medium to lightly strong smoke. Duration about 45- 50 minutes . The burns in uneven and cover leaf is ok but the smoke volume is very satisfactory. There is no real overwhelming favor . Starts off medium but moves rapidly into a strong favor and bits the tongue to the 2/3 point. For the price there are several aged cigars better for example the Dunhill aged series. Tried two different cigars was disappointed and these will not be a continued member of my humidor. Overall Rating : C-. Performance to price relationships in general is very poor!
