Guantanamera Puritos Cigar - Pack of 5

I have to say it wasnt a bad cigar but it wasnt the best for me either.. but we all have to remember every persons opinion and taste is different to others so I would say to anyone who reads this, try it before you reject it.. it might be the perfect cigar for you.

I guess these are direct competition for the Montecristo and Romeo & Julieta puritos and in my opinion fall at an apparent mid-point between the two - but come in as a little more expensive. I don't think you get more for your money with these but at an extra 20p a stick they are going to be worth trying out. The flavour is more complex than the RyJ, keeping the grassy/hay theme with a bit of nuttiness and some bolder tobacco flavours thrown in but are not quite up with those in quality of construction, although there were no problems to report. They don't have the punch of the Montecristos but are less prone to bitterness/tarriness. These are a good solid compromise. I enjoyed these overall but admittedly other puritos might offer other smokers more of what they are looking for for less money.

Nice little cigar. I've ordered these a few times and they make a fantastic 20 minute smoke for when time is short. Quite a smooth smoke with a peppery finish. I did however have one which went super bitter mid way. Could of been a bad stick, what do you want at under £2 per cigar. Will definitely be purchasing again

New to cigars and bought these along with a box of Montecristo but preferred these Guantanamera cigars. Nice smoke to get started on my cigar journey with about 15 minutes smoke time. Enjoyed with a nice glass of single malt whiskey.

I guess this would be a good cigar for beginners. Out of the packet, the stick has a spongy feel. Sniff test: Mild tobacco with (bizarrely) a faint underscore of urine. Initial impressions upon lighting: A nice, loose draw, with plenty of mild-tasting smoke. There's a mild taste of tobacco with an added underscore of cedar wood that lingers only briefly on your tongue. The first third had a good, steady burn. The ash is loose, and falls away within barely an inch. There's no change in the pleasant, mellow flavour. The middle third introduced a mild taste of creamy chocolate for a few draws. I also detected a taste of hops which, again, didn't last long. The final third maintained that mild taste. It did get a little stronger but it was still no more than a mild stick. In conclusion, this is a mild, mellow-tasting stick I would imagine would be an ideal starter for someone who hasn't smoked cigars before. Burn time is about 20 minutes so it's ideal for those with little time to spare. At the price, this is an okay smoke ideal for beginners.
