jonesyjay Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Ok, I wanted to try one of these NC Davidoffs....so I bought the 12 cigar sampler. About 6 of them tasted like someone's old basement........maybe the cigars were bad??? What was that about???? Anyway, then I came to the Special torpedo. Man....was that a good smoke........nice and hearty with a good flavor. I have no idea why the others tasted slightly wierd??? In my opinion, they aren't worth the price though....I just wanted to say "Hey, I tried a Davidofff". Does anyone here like them?

KB24 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I love the Special R's and the #2's and #3's from the Classic Line and actually tried for the first time today the new Winston Churchill by Davidoff. I had the #10 which is similar to a Robusto and it was amazing. They are def pricey though. -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Hemingway Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 never heard of a davidoff special "R" torpedo before? the spec-R i know of is a robusto. but hey whatever. i used to be super into the NC davi's, had a rather large collection of them for a while. IMO they are super good non cubans, i have liked just about everyone. my favorites are the #2, 2,000 tubos, special "R", Anni #3's and the 100th anni diademas. in the NC world i personally do not think that davidoffs are overpriced. the construction is always flawless, great taste and they burn perfectly from begining to end. if i were trapped on an island and the only thing there was a non cuban B&M, i would only smoke davidoffs and AVO's (which are davidoffs anyway,lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Special line and the Millenium Blends are the ones I like best. If you age them they improve IMHO. Honestly I don't buy they often due to price. Also Kellner has a distinct profile in his blends that you either enjoy or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yossie Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Tasty but too expensive here (Can you imagine it is more expensive than Cohiba?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB24 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Jay, Although the reviews say they are a full bodied smoke, the #10 I had was medium bodied and smooth as ever. The burn and draw were excellent and the construction was flawless. The flavor profile was similar to what I get from Monte #4's that I have, cream and cocoa. If they weren't so damn expensive I would buy a box. I highly recommend everyone to try one. -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
