Mitchellero Novellini Cigar - 1 Single

seemed very dry on lighting, the wrapper soon came undone and the cut was a little ruff. actually felt a little sick after smoking this not sure why not sure if it was an ammonia issue or because it was so dry. dont think ill buy this one again.

I have to say that I have only smoked cigarillos previously and branded over the counter cigars. Now in my 54th year on earth, I decided to try a real cigar and opted for this after advice via email from Cgars. I ordered 4, which arrived on said birthday and, firstly, I was very impressed by the packing of the cigars. So, I managed to cut the cigar fairly well but didnt light it particularly well, having a slight lopsided burn but it wasnt bad for a first attempt. This was a very satisfying smoke. Mild, slightly nutty and, best of all, the smell reminded me of my dad! It was a long smoke, I managed to get just over 70 minutes and 2 glasses of whiskey! Im going to give this cigar 4 stars as I am sure Ill discover better but Im adding the 5th for the customer service.

Bought as part of a bundle to try other sizes in the range but I found it too big in the ring gauge. 60mins smoking with a tight draw but it didn’t burn evenly although this could be because of my inexperience in lighting such fat cigars; it did have excellent ash retention. Same pleasant flavours as other Mitchelleros but for me it was too much

Plus for me. It looks good and the ash will stay true to the end. A 25 min smoke. Very mild. Negs for me. The taste is very crisp initially tho it changes quickly to the taste of a Henry Wintermans half corona cigar so not the greatest. Does need care while cutting. Smoke smells like damp cloth.

In my top 3 sticks. Great flavour and smokes really good. Only issue I had was cracked wrapper (which was my fault). Each third has different flavours. Ending on a minty chocolate flavour. This stick symbolises why IÂ’m a fan of new world. Highly recommend to anyone.
