This Geek Critique has been generously sponsored by Vroomp (Brad). He has designated this an all Admin review. Cigars were sent out to the reviewers in April to allow ample time to rest.
The Cigar: Davidoff Nicaragua Robusto Tubo
The Specs:
Wrapper: Nicaragua
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
Country of Origin: Dominican Republic
Strength: Medium-Full
Size: 5" x 50
Due Date: July 25, 2020
The Hype: Crafted as the first Nicaraguan Puro from Davidoff Cigars, Davidoff Nicaragua offers an intense palate stimulation, and blended with a 10-year old Nicaraguan Habano Rosado wrapper. Davidoff Nicaraguan cigars and their bittersweet taste sensation are exceptionally paired with a semi-sweet rum such as Flor de Caña or a single malt whisky such as Bunnahabhain 12 Year.

Note: A reviewer who posts their review late will receive neutral feedback. A reviewer who does not post at all will receive negative feedback (yes, even an Admin!) There are always exceptions to the rule and a reasonable excuse for tardiness or a no show will be respected and thus not counted against the reviewer. Our sponsoring members and our administrators make the choice of who is to participate in any particular Geek Critique and can be better informed of their choices with this initiative in place.
Thanks again to Vroomp for providing the cigar. And thank you to the reviewers.
Package received and a big thanks to Brad for the inclusion on this review and double thanks for the Xiphos tag alongs and the yummy AF Anejo Shark.

Thanks for that reminder Bruce~! :rocker: Meant to do it the other day and then my internet got ripped out by some idiot building a deck on the back of the house and I just got it back on yesterday.
Had I known that Fiber Optic was so easy to reconnect I woulda done it myself, but then again, I am an idiot.... or so I said I was............. :biggrin:

Smoked, reviewed, submitted. Thank you Brad for sponsoring and Bruce for coordinating.
I'm having trouble finding exactly where I submit my written review. I'm out of practice, I guess.

That thread is from 2014. I think I found the right place but now I need the exact name of the Davidoff stick.

Not due until the 25th. Pete got his in early (thank you!). Mine is done but needs to be typed up. This past weekend I sent a reminder PM to Paul, Brian and Larry. Paul thanked me for the reminder, so I am sure he has it on his busy schedule.
It's the 25th! Let's see the reviews!
