This cherry-bomb cigarillo from Dutch blender Duho packs 4"x33 dimensions into foil-sealed tins of 40. Made at the massive Tabacalera de García facility that also produces Backwoods, these machine-rolled sticks use Dominican-grown Maraschino cherry extracts infused into Brazilian wrapper leaves. Priced at $76.50 per box, they offer consistent performance - tight ash holds for 15-minute smoke sessions without relights.
The cold draw bursts with cherry cough syrup sweetness. Initial puffs deliver thick vanilla cream texture masking the Brazilian tobacco's natural earthiness. Smoke production stays modest - about 20% less density than standard Backwoods. The tin-preserved wrapper maintains perfect combustion line despite tropical humidity.
At halfway point, artificial fruit flavor intensifies to candy-like levels. Subtle almond nuttiness emerges beneath the dominant cherry, though tobacco character remains muted. Some users report slight tongue tingle from sweetener buildup. Pairing with unsweetened coffee helps balance the saccharine overload.
Last inch brings welcome bitterness resembling cherry pit tannins. Smoke turns warmer despite small ring gauge, with faint cedar notes surfacing. The 15-minute total burn time suits quick breaks, though multiple users mention craving "real tobacco" aftertaste post-session.
These cigarillos use homogenized wrapper leaves treated with food-grade cherry essence. The Dominican filler blend contains 18-month aged viso leaves mixed with proprietary flavoring compounds. Machine-bunching ensures 82-85% draw consistency across production batches. Tin packaging maintains 68-72% humidity without added humidification devices.
