I really don't like putting down a cigar, but for $10.00 a pop, I thought it only fair to make other smokers aware of my experience with my first Egg. I’m actually a big Drew Estates fan, so that makes it even harder to rate this cigar so low.---------------- I don’t submit any “Overall customer rating” unless I smoke at least two of a certain cigar, because the “Consistency” rating is impossible to determine after only one cigar. But here’s the ratings that I gave these four categories : “Construction”- 5. “Taste”- 5 at best. “Draw”- at times, between 5 & 1. “Burn” – at times, between 5 & 1. These are the very lowest ratings that I’ve ever given a cigar. For all I know, I got a rare bad one.---------------- It’s worth saying that when I cut a cigar, I always check the draw before I light it. Any cigar that’s too tight on the draw goes back into my humidor to rest until it’s open enough to draw OK. Before lighting, this Egg was WONDERFULLY open – almost an effortless draw. After lighting, it plugged up so bad that I thought I’d just have to chuck it. But I struggled with it (and it was a BIG struggle)! As far as the burn goes, hopefully I never get another cigar that burns as AWFUL as this one. The burn was a haphazard MESS – very poor to ridiculous.---------------- Even with an easy draw, and a perfect burn, I think that this Egg isn’t worth the price – not even close. Very surprising from Drew Estates, which I consider to be a quality cigar maker. less

Ok,to start off I enjoy many of the drew estate cigars and I am very open to any new types and flavors of cigars with a company like drew estate I belive you have to be. The start of the cigar brought out great flavor and a decently thick smoke with great anticipation I had finally made it to the "egg" part where I expected a plethora of flavors which it claims to present, but instead I ended up with almost no smoke, no flavor, and one very HOT cigar. I wanted the cigar to be good so I kept trying to smoke it but the "egg" of the cigar is so loosely packed that all it does is get hot. I do not suggest trying this cigar for I am afraid to steer away any possible drew estate smokers for many of the cigars are great such as the natural juicy lucy, acid kuba kuba, or the acid blondie. less

It's an extreme dicotomy of the mellow smoothness from start to middle, then the rich pungent love bite 'til the end. less

Well , sometimes I get in the mood for a drew estate . I tried an egg .. It light up well , good draw but there was ZERO taste and it was way too light . I put it out after 10 minutes and light up a real cigar. less

It was a pretty good, but not exceptional smoke. It was mild, with surprising changes in taste, but was an uneven burn and began to fall apart toward the end. I wasn't disappointed, but it's not something I would choose to smoke often. less
