Default Re: Davidoff Review: first impressions

I divide my smoking into 2 distinct categories: A) Full bodied smokes and B) Davidoffs.
I guess what I mean by this is I almost always smoke "full bodied" cigars. Typically I smoke after dinner. I eat, the wife and I put the little man to bed, and I sit on the porch after the sun has gone down and have a good cigar. Typically, my selections are DPG's, 601's, Tat's, Fuente, an Edge every now and then. But when I feel like a smoke and it's any other time of the day, I almost always reach for a Davidoff. IMHO, there isn't another stick out there that has the flavor profile of a Davidoff. I've tried a ton of sticks recommended by B&M's that claim to have the same flavors, but I've never found one. The flavors that I've found from them are fresh cut grass, a flaky pastry like a crossoiant (however you spell it) hibiscus flower (I've never tasted a hibiscus flower, but the scent reminds me of the taste of a davidoff) mild cinnamon, and straight but light tobacco. Davidoff is by far my favorite brand, and if I wouln't end up in the poor house, I'd buy alot more of them. I have one CC Davidoff that I was gifted over 3 years ago, but I just havn't found the opportunity or reason to smoke it yet. I guess my mind won't let go of the fact that I'll probably never get one again after that one! I don't know if it works for other people, but I like to read reviews of what I'm smoking when I smoke it so I can see if I get the same flavors as other people. It kind of gives me a "oh that's what I'm tasting, I put my finger on it!" Try another Davi, I like the Perfecto a lot, and the Special R is a must try too.
