I headed to Soho Whisky club with some dear friends and colleagues for an afternoon of whisky and ci**rs. I kicked off proceedings with a Davidoff Dominicana. This cigar is entirely made from to***co from the 2014 harvest! I picked this cigar up last year in the South of France and have been itching to try it ever since. I took the yellowed cellophane off and it revealed a beautifully oily wrapper with a brown reddish hue. It has a sort of compressed pig tail and 3 bands including the foot. The cut revealed a cold draw of malt, musky earth and a brown bread. I was definitely looking forward to this one. The light reveals a smooth yet strong rich flavour profile of creamy, leather, dark chocolate, earthy to***co notes what a start! The cigar progresses to a similar note with some cedar, cinnamon spice and coffee bean chucked in for good measure. It hints at pepper but not strong. The burn line was, as you’d expect with a Davidoff, razor sharp the construction impeccable. The flavour smooth yet strong, deep and rich. I think it would go well after a steak! This is a must try if you can find it!
