Don Tomas Classico Maduro Robusto Cigar Review
Maduro wrapper with a slight sheen of oils. The construction looks perfect. This should be a good cigar. I am having Maker’s Mark and a Cherry Coke with it.

My initial impression is that this is a decent cigar. I’m getting a very earthy flavor, almost like a grassy sweetness. There is also a bitterness to this cigar. The draw is a little too tight for my liking.
Very poor burn. Little over an inch in and I’m not liking it at all. In addition to the bitterness there’s now a sourness as well.
Burning quickly and wildly. What flavors there are in this cigar I do not like. And there aren’t that many flavors here to warrant a mention. Medium bodied.
I almost always finish a cigar. Things can change from the beginning to the end of a cigar. So, unless the cigar is just plain awful, I will give it the benefit of the doubt and finish it. I dislike this cigar so much that I cannot finish it.

Don Tomas Sun Grown Rothschild – Cigar Review
This is a cigar I smoked Tuesday after I turned in my final report for an entrepreneurship class I took this semester. That means I smoked it in my car and without any drinks.
It is a good looking cigar, very short and stubby. Dark as well. Looks like it should be a fairly decent cigar.

This is a very powerful cigar from the very first puff. Actually, it looks menacing just when you look at it. Very full bodied. It’s almost unwieldy though.
Tons of spice with this cigar, extremely peppery. There is also this dry meaty taste with this one. Mostly an even burn although there were some times when I thought it was going to get out of hand.
Unfortunately, this is not a very complex cigar. If you want a bull in the China closet type of cigar then this is the one for you. But if you are looking for something more refined then you should go elsewhere.
