Default Don Tomas special edition corona

Sorry, no pictures, I lost them during a hard disk crash before I could upload them.

The wrapper is pale brown but smooth and only has a few minor veins. The construction feels good and firm, the predraw is fine but leaves hardly any flavor. The aroma is hardly noticable.

I can taste some mild pepper and after an inch I also taste a mild wood flavor while the pepper disappears. Half an inch later the wood disappears too and I taste nothing at all. After a third the wood returns and at the end the wood changes into a mild nut flavor.

The cigar produces a medium thick smoke in a medium volume. The ash is compact and white. The draw and burn are good, but the cigar is mild flavored and mild bodied.

Would I buy this cigar again? No, this cigar is not worth smoking again, hardly any flavors at all.

Appearance: 6 / 10
Construction: 7 / 10
Draw: 7 / 10
Smoke & ash: 6 / 10
Burn: 7 / 10
Aroma (first part) 6 / 10
Aroma (middle part) 6 / 10
Aroma (last part) 6 / 10
