Don Tomás Cameroon Collection Perfecto

Don Tomás Cameroon Collection Perfecto. 6x48. Nice build with straight lines. Torpedo crown with a Perfecto foot. Medium shade of brown with some dark veins. Good cut and light. Medium draw pre- and post-flame. First half tastes of rich creamy Cameroon, light wood, mild herbal spice notes. Second half has more pronounced earthy spice, toasted/charred wood, darker bitter toward the band. Strong clean ash that holds over an inch. Even burn throughout.

This is an excellent cigar, a solid example of a standard Cameroon. The mild nutty taste of the creamy wrap coupled with the slightly building spice profile make it a good go-to cigar from a reliable brand. Well recommended.

From the company:

“Medium to full in body and perhaps best known for its complexity, Don Tomás Cameroon is a smoke with great panache. Its exotic blend of Dominican, Mexican, and Brazilian tobacco is balanced by a Dominican binder and punctuated by a brawny Cameroon wrapper to impart profound flavor that engages the palate from the first draw to the last.”
