musk

jliu

Hello. Snoobie here again. I realized that when I have various cigars, typically towards the latter third of the cigar, I get a musk. This may sound gross but I really dig it. When I say various cigars, I can't exactly isolate it to certain types. I've gotten it with claros (LFD), aged cameroon wrappers, and for the most part most ISOMs (Cohibas, JOs). But with ISOMs, I typically get it throughout the entire cigar. Any ideas? Would love to get your inputs misters.

..eh musk? never got that from a cigar, now when I use to club and all that I would smell a "musk". Then I would get that ick factor. Thank god for the finger test.

hmm. ok. How do I explain this... So the most prominent "musk" that I taste is for instance... if you guys have tried a fresh rolled JO, I'm referring to that. Even when I open up a humi that has JOs in it, I get a wonderful smell of that. It's by no means a basement moldy smell at all. It's this earthy, wet, musk... I can't really explain it haha. Anyways, professor Kuzi, I'll try a Davidoff. Any specific Davidoff cigars you can direct me to with this "Kelner Musk?"

Yeah, I think I know what youre talking about bc it seems that every ISOM I've had has this sort of flavor that I find delicious too!

i do get some musk out of cubans but more commonly and prominently i get the "twang" that i can only describe as "sharp earth"

Wouldn't have used twang(only cause to my palate it's very subtle) but "sharp earth" hits it right on the head!

Any Davidoff, really. kuzi says the 2000 is the best example, and he has more experience with the brand than I do. As far as AVO... the Classic and the 787 have a good amount of musk, but nearly all AVOs have at least some hint of it. I personally like the Heritage and the Domaine the best (I really like the 787 too, but they are pricey).

I agree with the 787 and classic, those are my favorite from the line. I'll be grabbing some davidoff here soon too
