Bdawg says:  I am a fan of Cameroon wrappers, and I am a fan of Drew Estate cigars.  I was particularly excited to try this stick.  Unfortunately immediately after I lit it, the wrapper split badly!

The wrapper is light reddish brown, veiny and rustic.  The the draw is easy producing a loose white ash.  The flavor, indiana spice, red pepper flakes, with a sweet tang on the finish.  The burn was medium paced.

I may give this cigar another chance as I really liked the flavor.  For now, I must deduct 1 point for the horrible split in the wrapper.  What a shame.
