Drew Estate Tabak Especial Limited Red Eye

Great flavor

Always a great cigar to go to.

Just a superb experience. A nice change up from a regular cigar.

Smooove !

I really enjoyed the cigar. Full of coffe notes. The strength of the cigar was perfect for me. I havent gone thru the whole box yet but they have burned consistently well. Definite buy again for my collection

My least favorite of the tabaks, but still worthy of 4 stars. Aroma is fantastic.

Good flavor

One of my favorites.

All I cam say is that this cigar is very satisfying and draws well throughout the smoke.

This is my go to cigar. The Infused hint of sweetness and chocolate flavor, plus a sweet tip makes it a perfect cigar. I pair this sometimes with a good scotch, rum, and on some occasion a cup of cappuccino on my mid day break. Great smoke!

Great little smoke, good draw and nice finish .

Love these cigars. Have been ordering them for 2 years

One of Drew Estate's wonderful infused cigars. Love the chocolate and coffee. My wife loves the aroma.

Awesome cigar with smooth taste and flavor!

Taste is good, but not easy on the draw.

My favorite cigar.

It is a nice smooth smoking cigar.

very tasty cigar. burns evenly and stays lit till the end.

Love these cigars!

Good smoke by drew estate

I prefer flavor infused cigars so I really enjoy a lot of the cigars from Drew Estate. The Kuba Kuba is one of my “go to” cigars. Always a great smoke and great flavor. But this was the first time I tried the Tabak Especial Red Eye. WOW! I absolutely LOVED this cigar. I have a new cigar that I will keep stocked in my humidor.

Great smoke

Red eye is my favorite. Delicious and burns flawless. Tasty as ever and always in my humidor.

Good draw, good flavor, good everything. No complaints. One of my new favs and go to cigars.

Fantastic flavor and smell! Great infusion of coffee and tobacco! A very satisfying smoke!

taste draw

Top notch smoke.

Flavorful taste and smell. Smooth full body smoke. Nice way to close out a busty work day.

My “GO TO” cigar! Very good burn and excellent draw. I’m not a “typical” infused cigar guy, but this one has made me a believer!

I bought tabak cigars before and loved them. Still do. But this batch of recently bought cigars don’t draw very well and I have had to light them numerous times. Maybe it was just a bad batch.

Great smoke. Nice construction from head to foot, Burn and draw are even. Satisfying flavor with a morning cup of joe. Would buy again.

Great Quality, even smoke and very flavorful.

Awesome smoke very flavorful burns even

A very tasty cigar. Well made, even burn, tastes great

Still my favorite cigar. Smooth, even burning, nice draw and a very nice coffee flavor. My humidor is stocked with 90% Drew Estate smokes! It's close to a tie with the Drew Estates Kuba Kuba Candela.

These are awesome. Definitely getting more.

One of my favorite flavored smokes, by far! Drew Estate does not disappoint with this medium-body beauty, and goes perfect as an after-dinner smoke for me. I am not a huge fan of infused smokes as a rule, but I come back to this one often.

Overpriced, but good.

Incredible cigar. Full bodied with sweet coffee flavor. Very nice woody flavor at the start.

This is one of my favorites, I used to use it as a change of pace, but it’s a wonderful tasting smoke, with great draw. My first encounter with Red Eye I didn’t know if I was to eat it or smoke it. The sweet taste goes all the way to the end. As stated above it was first a change of pace. But this cigar is great everyday.

I bought a 5-pack out of curiosity. I love coffee and I love cigars. I was leary because I was indifferent with DE Java line; however, Tabak Red Eye was outstanding! I seldom smoke a cigar that matches the creative descriptions but this one does. My cigar ratings are simple: Would I pay full price for this cigar? YES! Do I buy more than I should when on sale? GUILTY. Don't let 4.5" disuade you. Taste is excellent and consistent all the way thru... good to the last puff!

Great smoke

All around great “go to” cigar. Full bodied and never disappoints. Great with my morning coffee, or with my afternoon red wine and even with my evening scotch!

My go to am smoke with coffee.

One of my favorites - great cigar - pleasant & enjoyable

One of my favorite smokes! Burns nice and slow with a sweet aroma and smell. My wife actually enjoys me smoking these around her.

Got them on sale and not disappointed. Typical drew estate thick smoke that satisfies and just a mild infusion. Starts as a cigar ends more like coffee. Burn is super nice and ash is not white but tight. No canoeing on this in a mild wind as well. Overall quality build probably not the best beginner cigar as it gets hot easily.

Great tasting cigar. Definitely in my top 5 list.

One of my favorite cigars, from my favorite cigar manufacturer, Drew Estate. The infused flavor, balance, and aroma is always on point.

These cigars have been my favorite for years now. Always a special treat with a great cup of coffee and a friend to share one with. Your friends will love/hate you for for introducing them to these beauties.

great flavor

Awesome

Great Taste

great flavor

Awesome cigars!! One of my favorites! A little too expensive to buy regularly but still a great Cigar!

Awesome

Great cigar. Love Drew Estates!

Earthy, slightly sweet with mild coffee taste smooth finish. A favorite for sure

This cigar is nothing short of phenomenal. The best of all I have smoked. Good size and great flavor with hints of coffee, cream and spice. This is a treat that I save for those special times.

Nice and smooth

Not a fan, hard to light, a bit dry and too harsh for me.

Love the coffee cigars from Drew Estates.

Awesome draw and essence

My favorite morning stick

Love these cigars. They've been my go to cigar for a few months now.

Great cigar with a coffee infused flavor. Very fresh and burns even. I would highly recommend to try.

Just a little bit on the dry side this time.

A very tasteful and smooth cigar! This is one of my favorite ones for sure.

Flavor and smoke is great. Good with coffee or just for a change up smoke.

Simply an amazing smoke

best cigar

The ash is Solid. The draw is full and the smell is wonderful

Another excellent stick from drew estate . I buy these when CI has specials on them every time

I really enjoy this cigar! Great taste and burn! You can enjoy this with a cup of coffee!

Love the profile flavor with a smooth finish absolutely the perfect Cigars to chill after a long workout day!

Always good smokes for sweeter cigar

Packed well, small package long burn and the best tasting cigar in my stash.

I just love the flavor of these cigars...and it’s quite a long smoke too!

Drew Estates never disappoints. A perfect blend of sweet and dark.

Tabak cigars as a whole are my favorite cigars. Delicious, aromatic... I order them anytime there's a special offer. The chocolatey taste and fragrances are truly special...

Tasted great need more

Absolutely one of my favorites! If you could smoke a piece of chocolate cake, this would be it! Every time I smoke one I get compliments on the great aroma. The absolutely smooth smoke, beautiful wrapper and solid ash are what make this a great cigar. It’s like having your cake and eating it too.

This is a good smoke. Definitely not subtle with the amount of inclusion, bit it is indeed a Drew Estate. Love the smell unlit, too. Definitely a top 20% smoke. Getting on sale is nice .

Great smoke with my coffee

Excellent flavor, my new favorite

Great With a cup of coffee, pleasant aroma great taste

They are the perfect size and flavor. The smoke has a very good taste.

Great cigar with mild sweet taste

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing... enough said.

On a scale of 1 to 10 Red Eye is a strong 11. Perfectly rolled, the draw is always light and the flavor is consistent right up until your fingertips are blistering... John Drew is the master.

To start love the hint of sweetness cigars.They burn consistently and have a deep smoke. I have enjoyed Drew Estates cigars for a long time . A trio of robustness, sweetness and thick smoke. Since the early 1990's when I met Drew in Brooklyn, when he was rolling out of his mother's basement.

Awesome smoke cool early morning with a cup of coffee. Aroma is nice

You cannot go wrong with this stick!

Man is this GOOD! Love this cigar to start the day! Great morning stick!

Delicious

Always a great smoke.

Love them. I’ve purchased Tabak Red Eye cigars many times and they’re always excellent. But when they get to short to continue smoking I find myself wishing they came in a longer size.

This is my favorite Drew Estate cigar. Don't be fooled by it's stature, this bad boy packs a punch. Needless to say this is my go to stogie when out on the golf course. The taste can't be beat and the burn is very uniform. Other golfers know when I'm in the area by the very pleasant aroma. Drew Estate knows what they are doing when they manufactured this one very fine sample of their great line of smokes.

One of my favorite infused Cigars!

New favorite...

Love these every time

Enjoy flavor, your price has become stupid.

Wonderful aroma, very nice quality. I love these things. My favorite cigar.

Do I need to write the review? Tabak is one of the best and top notch cigars in the current market. What a smoke. Mind boggling. You cannot beat the quality and when it comes to the smoke, it is so balanced and smooth.

This is a must have for every humidor! Smooth and full of great flavor and perfect size too!

excellent cigar

Such an easy smoke. So well rounded with flavor from start to finish. Drew Estate never fails to get it right. This is a great after dinner smoke, that I would never tire of.

Just enough sweetness, burned evenly, good value cigar.

Loved it

Easily my favorite cigar both in flavor and size.

The best cigaahhh eva

This Drew Estate cigar is a nice treat and pairs well with your favorite coffee. Grab them when you can!

This CI specialty from Drew Estate is amazing! The draw is smooth, the aroma outstanding. It’s chock full of tasteful goodness! My new fav!

My favorite smoke. Strong but smooth. Well constructed cigar.

This is my go to smoke. My relaxer with a little scotch!

Excellent cigar. One of my favorites.

I am disappointed in the box of Drew Estate cigars I received. The seal was broken when the cigars arrived. This makes me believe that the box was made up of loose cigars to fill the order. This is the first time this has happened, every other purchase the seal has been intact. I paid over $170.00 for a new box, not one made up to fill an order. I have written to your company twice already and received no answer. Please address my complaint. Thank you. Charles Reina

One of my very favorites!

The Free Estate Redeye is in its 'own category.Yes it's a maduro,yes it's medium to full-bodied,yes it's infused,but Drew Estate managed to let the qualities of strength,full flavor,slow excellent burn,best aroma in a cigar hands down.This cigar satisfies the most jaded,grizzled,38year cigar smoker(yours truly),and manages, for the most part,not to offend those snooty,self-righteous types because this cigar smells amazing and even draws complements.Well done!Thanks C.I.

Nice cigar. Wonderful hint of sweet coffee.

I ordered these once by mistake. Now I love them with my first morning cup of coffee. Starts my day off just right

Great cigar!

Good things come in small packages. Drew Estate hit the mark on this one

Great smoke

One of my favorite for an after dinner wind down. Love it because I get a little coffee/dessert but also feel like I am smoking a good cigar at the same time.

Burns evenly nice gray ash. Wonderful flavor.

My all time favorite cigar; think of it as a Montecristo Media Noche' with notes of coffee!

My favorite options

Not a top 5 but I will be buying a 5 pack on occasion for a change of pace.;

My favorite cigar. It has a full deep bodied flavor and the nuances I seek in a cigar. I first smoked them at a campout and have not stopped buying them since. Everyone I've introduced them to has loved them.

They were great!

Love CI. Great prices. Quick delivery even with the world the way it is today and they take care of us Firefighter Coos AND First responders. 🚒🚓 MUCH love for CI!!!!

Great smoke I will buy more of these.i love this smoke

Red Eyes are always great! I buy them every time I see them on sale. Best infused cigar on the market!

way better than the red eye in flight( that being a joke )

this is one of my favorites, sweet wrapper, which I really like, but the aroma.. was mellow, and pleasant. easy draw, but not really loose, just smooth. The last 3rd had a mint flavor, but lightly.

Great smokes!

Smooth and very tasteful. Great aroma as well.

always a great smoke !

Delicious cigars.

great balance and flavor

My favorite. I have purchased several boxes over the years.

Great smoke

My favorite flavored cigar. It's just a little bit better than the Java.

Buy far my favorite cigar, love the taste and the aroma you get off them . Nobody ever complains when I light one up . They always say how good they smell.

This is one of my favorites. No wait, this IS my favorite cigar. Medium to full-bodied with notes of coffee and Earth with a slight hint of sweetness

Great coffee tasting flavor and smoke

I like the light flavour witch still allows to taste the high quality tobacco that was used to put this amazing treat together.

Great flavor stout

Good smoke

Best coffee cigar!

Highly recommended

Great cigar!

Very great smokes

Awesome smoke like a Tabak but much more interesting and complex

good smoke, flavor, without too much flavor. good Maduro type smoke.

Tabak Redeye is a consistently smooth, flavorful smoke that delivers throughout the entire length. A sweet start that produces hints of cream, cedar, and leather, but stays mellow - makes you wish it was longer.

Nice sticks. Wish i could afford a box of them

Without a question this happens to be my Number One choice. There is nothing close to it.

This is hands down my favorite cigar, I try to get one in every day. It’s like a delicious after dinner desert, chocolate, wood, coffee, notes, and the best part no calories! I know a lot of people turn there nose up to infused cigars, too those people I say a few things, 1) your loss more for me.... 2) not everyone can afford to smoke a Padrone or an Opus X every day even though many of your Facebook feeds would make us think otherwise 3) Drew Estate, to me makes a most consistent and affordable stick for the money. The Red Eye is a maduro-wrapped lovely and the equivalent to a triple espresso-laced cup of coffee, thanks to 3 extra doses of ligero, while still maintaining a slight influence of rich coffee subtleties throughout the blend. This is not an Acid line stick, its from the Tabac Especial Line. More ligero means more Nicaraguan tobacco goodness, and Red Eye certainly satisfies. A rich core of black tobacco flavors and bold earthy undertones is met with subtle hints of coffee and sweetness - a sweetness that fades as the aged long-leaf ligeros take center stage. This is a stick that I always smoke down to the absolute nub. Try it I bet you will like it too, and there isn’t a better smelling 2nd hand smoke that this. Your wives might even let you enjoy one in the house.

Great holiday smoke

Nice smoke, great with a cup of coffee.

Had a couple of these in a combo pack and thought they were great. Just treated myself to a box of 21. Great smoke.

Another fantastic cigar from Drew Estates

Good an smooth cigar with a nice Tate to it

great flavor & long burn, can't wait for another sale on them!!!

Love em

Great!

I'm a huge Drew estate fan don't know that this is my favorite but it's right up in the top three very smooth very flavorful great aroma keep them in my box all the time my friends have tried them and they came back with total agreement that they are really good would recommend them to anybody you won't be disappointed.

Great Deal and great service!

I am a big fan of Drew Estate, especially the Tabak. Very smooth, very nice after a meal. Highly recommend

I've smoked a lot of different cigars over the years but this is the best tasting one I've smoked yet,it's just the right size for a flavored cigar, keeps it's flavor all the way to the end.This beauty actually has a real coffee taste unlike some of the cheaper cigars.I'll buy these as long as they make um.

Had one at a buddy's at night with a whiskey, great taste. I found myself wondering what it would be like in the am with coffee or something and DING DING that's the combination! A great morning cigar or dessert cigar due to how sweet it is. My wife commented on how it smelled and even tried it for a bit

One of my favorites, sweet taste with hints of coco.

Everytime I light one of these babys up. I'm forever getting ask from women and men what is that.

Excellent taste

Great smoke slightly sweet great after dinner cigar

Great cigar, good burn with a mild sweet flavor throughout. I enjoyed mine with an espresso and it was fantastic.

Love this product. Had an issue with shipping ( not on CI's end ups lost it ) . Would like to say the customer service at CI is hands down one of the best . Thank you John and the team at CI for all your help !

A most excellent cigar

My top 3 favorites

This is my go to smoke...I'll always have a box of these. I bought a separate humidor specifically to store these.

Very smooth flavorful relaxing smoke

I don’t write reviews, but I LOVE THESE SO MUCH that I had to!!! I literally bought two boxes because they were such a great deal and they are AMAZING!!! MUST BUY!!!

Great cigar wonderful taste and smoke.

These never cease to fail as a decent maduro without a nicotine rush

Taste and aroma is very rich in coffee and dark chocolate flavor. Get many compliments from surrounding smokers who inquired about the brand and ,make of this cigar. Burns evenly with uniform ash.

With the infusion of coffee they managed to finally perfect the process and came up with a good offering. Mornings with hot coffee for sure!

Great smoke with coffee very enjoyable.

love these cigars, wish i would have gotten more. the cigars have great draw and taste great too.

Very relaxing smoke. Not too robust.

I typically go for a more robust smoke but this was a pleasant surprise.

Great smoke, especially when your amongst non smokers they seem to enjoy the smell

These are my favorite cigars. The aroma with the slightly sweet taste checks all the boxes for me. Try them. You won’t regret it!!

Great cigar, pleasure to smoke

Great stick...enjoy one outside in the cold air with a hot cup of coffee.

A steady and mild smoke from start to finish. I love any a Drew Estate cigars

Damn good breakfast smoke!!!! Perfect way to start the day.

Excellent taste. Just wish they were longer.

Great coffee infused smoke. Full bodied with dark chocolate flavors. More coffee forward than the other cigars of the brand

Good mild smoke

An exceptional smoke for those who like infused cigars. I was hooked on the first draw. Drew Estate continues to impress.

good flavor nice burn

Good smoke

Was a decent cigar. Not much flavor.

I really like the red eye it burns nice and slow. I enjoy the nice medium flavor not too much not too little. Nice smoke for a beginner

They perfect

This was the first infused cigar that I ever enjoyed. It has a sweet chocolate and coffee flavor that I found surprisingly tasty. It’s not one of my “go to” cigars, but it is a nice little bit of variety.

I was first introduced to the joys of Tabak Red Eye by my Cigar Club at the Port of Umm Qasr, Iraq, back in 2013. It remains one of my all-times faves!

Great flavor and smooth tasting!

Delicious

First time I had the Red Eye and I really enjoyed it !! I have had the Negra in my humidor for some time and this one was just as good ! I enjoy the coffee infused cigars in the morning with my coffee!!

Looks great, smokes great, is great...very nice mellow weekend smoke.

Nice cigars burns nice sweet tip creamy smoke

I don't like the Red Eye because it is to hard and doesn't burn well I had to constantly puff on it to keep from going out Plus I didn't like the taste No where like the Café con Leche at all..

Coming close to taking over my favorite golfing stick... I wish they had 6x60!!! DELISH!!! Great smoke start to finish

Excellent cigar! Nice nutty and coffee flavor without being too sweet. Gong well with a scotch on your deck on an summers evening. Burns nice and even. I just wish CI would run a sale on these so I can stock up !

Love this cigar. Was first introduced to it by a fireman in Iraq back in 2010.

an excellent smooth taste, yet slightly robust a Great taste.

I really like the Tabak Especial line. I like all of them. The Red Eye is quite a treat on a cold morning with a mug o joe. Just the right size, with a bit more gumption than the Negra. It is 6:40 AM here. I am going to have one now!

A friend recommended the Red Eye and billed it as his favorite cigar. I wasn’t disappointed. It was outstanding. Thanks Maximo!

they were a bit dry when received

One of my faves with a coffee

Would have rated this one point lower by itself but smoked it with some Brandy and they complimented one another better than any other combination that I have tried
