Chinchalero Picadillos Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Sunday 17 May, 2015 by Richard

Slight damage to cap but didn't affect smoking of this cigar, good draw and burn loads of creamy smoke. For £3.69 you can't go wrong for a nice 45 minute smoke . My new fishing cigar has been found!

Smoked three of these now and they've all been a very pleasant, no-fuss experience. The near-perfumey initial taste post-toasting is unusual, almost carrying sugary notes in the smoke, but it soon settles into a pleasant afternoon smoke with more of a caramel taste alongside the deeper leathery notes. Visibly well built, the ash held for well over an inch, while the burn and draw were both good and even (I did have to wrestle with the burn a little towards the end, but that was partly because I was trying to smoke it down to the cap, such was the enjoyment). It's an uncomplicated smoke, but sometimes that's just what you need, and there's something about a 50+ gauge that just feels right in the mouth and the hand. This is an exceptionally cost-effective way to enjoy the sensation.

Bought a couple of singles to sample - won't be buying again. Most notable characteristic was the overpoweringly soapy-tasking wrapper. The smoke shared a similar soapy character, but the taste of the cap on my tongue was so nauseating I left this to die after smoking less than half an inch - not for me at all.

Really enjoyed this milld petit robusto sized cigar. The flavour is light and smooth with notes of coffee and cream. This cigar is excellent value for money and its great as a mid week smoke. My first taste of the Chinchalero brand, I was impressed with the built quality and the cigar burnt down consistently without having to be re lit. Have already bought a few more of these as a regular 'everyday' smoke. A light, easy smoke.

Good smell out of the packet - rich and chocolatey. Held about an inch and a quarter of ash before it dropped. Kept threatening to go out, but that could have been down to a number of self-imposed reasons; I poked (in the absence of a cutter) and smoked it in rather windy conditions. Initially I was getting little more than a general cigar aroma/taste, with heavy pepper, but about half way through, an oily cream taste came through. The band slid off easily when the time was right. An enjoyable smoke.

Tried one of these last week, I was very impressed, better than many other cigars I have tried costing far more. Draw was excellent, pleasant but not overpowering flavour. The burn was quite uneven towards the end, however this did not spoil my enjoyment of this very nice smoke. Lasted around 40 minutes, the ash was distinctly white and held on for the first third of the cigar. In summary excellent value for money I have ordered more already.
