UNDERCROWN EL TIGRE DOMINICANO | CIGAR REVIEW

JUNE 14, 2026 - PHIL KURUT, COMEDY - CIGARS - MUSIC

UNDERCROWN EL TIGRE DOMINICANO TORO (6 x 50)

WRAPPER: ECUADORIAN SUMATRA

BINDER: CONNECTICUT COROJO H99 HYBRID

FILLER: DOMINICAN HVA & C-98

El Tigre’s balanced spice leaves plenty of room for sugar and suede to move around. Effortless draw and smoke output for days. Good stuff so far.

Sugar and suede lead the retrohale while spice hangs back and lightly coats the nostrils. Doesn’t sting the nostrils. No Black Panther cologne here.

Leather settles in on the finish; spice lightly coats.

Burn tends to wave a bit. We’ll see if it needs any help. Ash flakes about as much as a lead singer. “Sorry I couldn’t make it to rehearsal. Also, can you spot me five bucks?”

Subtle dark stone fruit flows straight through the core, and coffee grounds begin sinking deep in the palate on the finish.

Numerous burn touch-ups needed shortly after the half.

Even though the ash reminds me of a lead singer, El Tigre at least remembered most of the lyrics.

SMOKE TIME: 1 hr. 41 mins.

RATING: 2.75 / 4 - Remembered most of the lyrics.
