I received a Root - Natural by Drew Estate in a swap recently, and smoked the cigar today. Prior to smoking the cigar I was unaware of the reviews, and had no thoughts of what to expect. I only knew that it was not a "flavored" cigar like the Acids.
The cigar is 5" x 55rg, impeccably constructed, had a very nice draw, and a shaggy foot. I like the shaggy foot. The cigar lit easily, with light sweet notes. My first thought was of strawberry, which caused me a bit of concern. But after the first half inch or so the flavor changed to sweet coffee, and then became a bit "deeper" as the cigar progressed. Mocha cappucino, as the reviews describe, never entered my mind, but in hindsight I can see the resemblence. The burn was razor sharp. I smoked it to the last inch. Overall the cigar was somewhat monochromatic in flavor, but was a nice cigar nonetheless.
I probably wouldn't go out and buy these, but if I got some in a swap I wouldn't be disappointed.
