Very mild, sweet cigar. Milder than the original Deadwood toro cigar. I many times smoke this as the second cigar of the day.

Drew Estate Dominicana – Cigar Review Response Right out of the gate, the construction is tight, no soft spots. Cold draw gives off earthy sweetness with a bit of cedar. Once lit, the first third kicks in with a bold, peppery blast—typical of Drew Estate’s more assertive blends—but quickly mellows into a creamy coffee and leather combo. Retrohale has a surprising touch of cinnamon and citrus. By the second third, things smooth out. The pepper fades and you get more cocoa, toasted oak, and a graham cracker sweetness that creeps in. Smoke output is classic Drew: dense and oily. Burn line stays mostly straight with minor corrections. Final third brings the strength. Black coffee, charred wood, and a touch of spice return, layered over a dark molasses base. It doesn’t go harsh, but it doesn’t hold your hand either. Definitely full-bodied by the end. Verdict: This stick isn’t for beginners. It’s complex, evolving, and packs some strength. If you’re into rich, full-flavored cigars with character, the Drew Estate Dominicana hits the mark. Not a daily smoke—but when you’ve got time to sit with it, it rewards you.

When you want to retreat from bold smokes, this fits the bill. A mild enjoyable smoke, good construction and burn. Deadwood does it again and the wife may like it too.
