Inka Secret Blend Red Petit Corona Cigar - Box of 10

Having enjoyed the Tres Petit Corona I decided to give these a try and was somewhat disappointed. In comparison they are rather bland and "ordinary." Not a bad cigar by any means but I'll think twice about trying their larger vitolas.

just ok. Not unpleasant and the burn and construction were fine. Only flavour I got was sweet tobacco. I'm done with this brand now. Every time I see these great reviews I feel like maybe I should give the Inka range another try but the result is always the same. Plain and simple sweet tobacco, just like a big cigarette. Might be ok for an everyday smoke to keep costs down but since I only smoke once a week there is no point me getting any more. Im giving two stars as it wasn't horrible, it just wasn't good enough to revisit

I have to agree with Alistair. This is a lovely herf. Easy to draw, lovely flavour to the end. I have had more trouble drawing from a Montechristo and less flavour from an Upmann. I was not at all disappointed with this and will likely buy more.

For £5.49 I wasn't expecting much, but the reviews seemed good and so I thought if nothing else it was going to be a pleasant cigar. Unfortunately it didn't start out great, the cap was horribly askew and it seemed far too firm. Lighting was a challenge and it took me nearly five matches to get a solid burn going and many more touching up where the wrapper was burning uneven through the smoke. Draw was hard, as initially suspected it was tighter packed than it needed to be and this made smoking it too much of an effort. It went out several times before I had even reached the halfway mark and after the third relight I eventually consigned it to its fate. Flavour wise it was a nice cigar, sweet with a lingering flavour that clung to my palate between draws but it was not enough to warrant how difficult it proved to be to smoke. I have another Rojo Red, the Figurado and if this is an improvement I'll definitely revisit the line. But first impressions left a lot wanting and it was ultimately unsatisfying and £5.49 I feel I could have spent better.

...that I could taste it the following day. This cigar represents real bang for your buck and I will certainly be ordering more, but for now I have the rest of the range to try!
