Davidoff Millennium Blend Tubos Robusto – Cigar Reviews
Davidoff Millennium Blend Tubos
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Hybrid
Binder: Dominican
Filler: Dominican
Made In: Dominican Republic
Size: 5×50 Robusto
Price: $16.95 per single cigar
Appearance & Construction: The Davidoff Millennium Blend is a gorgeous cigar to look at. The cigar sports a milk-chocolate colored wrapper with very minimal veins present. The roll looks nice and even and there are no hard or soft spots detected.
Smoking Characteristics: The Davidoff Millennium has a nice free draw that produces a decent amount of smoke. The burn is extremely even and the ash is solid and compact. Not much more you can ask for in terms of the smoking characteristics.
Flavor: The Davidoff Millennium Blend starts with some dried grass flavor and white pepper. During the second third the dried grass flavor dissipates and a nice gram cracker flavor emerges. The finish is dry and harsh on the palate and at this point, I am not really enjoying this cigar. Things remain generally the same till I finally decided to set the cigar down for good.
Final Thoughts: Words cannot describe how disappointed I am with the Davidoff Millennium Blend. At $16.95 per cigar I expected a lot more. I’m not even sure that this cigar could pass as a bundle stick. Now, I must tell you that I only had this one cigar for review and I even thought about not posting this review because I was only able to smoke one of these cigars. But for $16.95, this cigar should “wow” me with just one cigar, there should not be “bad ones” when you charge that much for a cigar. The flavors were so dry and the pepper, although not that strong, just took over and muted any kind of flavor that I would get from this cigar. After smoking this cigar I took a look around the web to see what everyone else was saying about this cigar and there have been some mixed reviews. Who knows, maybe I got a bad one, but what I do know is that I feel ripped off.
Cigar Rating: Poor/ Below Average

Do try this again, and again. It’s one of the most intriguing, amazingly balanced flavour cigars.
I can’t believe you’ve had harshness, this is Davidoff politeness incarnate; I suspect something was wrong with the storage of your cigar.
Smoke, on! Radu.
I am ulsluay a pedant in these matters, but I am fine with this clue.The “that’s mere arrogance/conjecture/etc” = “that’s just arrogance/conjecture/etc” argument clinches it as far as I am concerned. In this context, mere can be exactly substituted for just, so what is there to complain about?This was one of the easiest clues for me, in another DA where I didn’t exactly cover myself in glory.Since the answer was a 4-letter word it was pretty obvious that the definition was much more likely to be “just” rather than a technical medical word for gout, whatever that might be.So “mere” immediately sparang to mind, followed a few milliseconds later by the merge – g wordplay.
