I’ve smoked Tatiana Mocha two days ago and I’m not overly impressed with it but I smoked way worse cigars as well. The smell of the cigar itself is way too strong and kind of artificial. Makes a bad impression before being lit. However I have to say that things in this department improve much when cigar starts burning – smoke is has actually some pleasant coffee connotation. As for the taste it leaves a lot to desire. Some kind of coffee flavor mixed with vanilla is present but not much of a tobacco flavor itself can be recognized. I am generally speaking open when it comes to sampling flavored cigars. Tried few different products from Drew Estate and here I obviously made comparison to Tabak Especial. And I have to say Tabak is waaaay better than this one. Smoking Tabak feels actually like smoking a cigar with some nice and subtle coffee connotations. Tatiana overwhelms with coffee aroma and sweet coffee-cocoa flavor but lacks qualities of an actual cigar. Draw was just a bit too stiff but not much. Burn was not even at all and at 2/3 cigar went off. I did not bother anymore and discarded it.
To summarize given the price tag per stick I would suggest Isla Del Sol for similar but perhaps better in some ways and cheaper experience.

Great review as always Jerry!! I also was very dissapointed with this cigar. The taste was horrible and it went out twice while trying to smoke it before i even reached the halfway point. Threw it out.

I have only smoked one infused cigar (Drew Estate Java) and you hit the nail on the head with your comment on the up front, over sugary taste from the cap. Aside from that I enjoyed that smoke. Think I’ll stay away from this one. Thanks Jerry

What a coincidence. My wife just picked me up a couple of these. She went to the B&M on Friday to get the 20th Anniversary Nestor Miranda and thought these smelled good. I’ll be sure to tell her the difference between aroma and taste. Anyway, great review of something different.

If “she” could only smell like the Tatiana Mocha.
