At the light up (into the first third of the cigar), I thought I was smoking a Davidoff Grand Cru as I was getting the typical Grand Cru notes of smokey cedar, toasted almonds and earthy spices and as the cigar begin the warm up (halfway through the 1/3 and throughout the 2/3 of the cigar) this transferred into nuttiness, oak, sweet paprika and fruity (like a light to medium roast) coffee. The final third, I picked up dry earth, charred oak and mustiness.
I am giving it 4 stars as this cigar needs more age to make it a phenomenal smoke. Otherwise, I did love it. Glad I got a box from Oxford.

My god was this ever good. I’m not a huge Davidoff guy, as I find most of their stuff doesn’t really justify the price to me. There are exceptions, things that really hit my palate well like the Yamasa and the Late Hour. Not to say that anything they make is bad, they’re all very good cigars in their own right, but I wouldn’t shell out the cash for most of them, the value just isn’t there for me.
Not the case with this though. Right at light up this wonderful bourbon oak barrel sweetness dominates. There’s some hearty cereal grain to follow, as well as vanilla, cherry, and white pepper. As I smoke it just gets creamier and sweeter. The barrel flavor dies down by the halfway point but never fully leaves the profile. There’s a little grassiness to it and that classic Davidoff barnyard quality. The flavors are absolutely outstanding, as is the construction. Absolutely flawless draw and burn, I’ve never had a lancer o perform quite this well. Very very impressive cigar. I’m ordering more as soon as I finish this review.
