This was a fairly good smoke considering its price. Unfortunately, and that's the reason why I'm not giving it 4 or 5 stars, the wrapper peeled off on the last third of the stick (but that didn't stop me to finish it)

I have to say, what a pleasant surprise this was. For a price point of around £8 or £9 quid, I expected it to be sort just ok-ish, but I really did enjoy it a lot. A nice little stick, ideal for the good old morning coffee and bun time break, or with a coffee and a biscuit. Excellent little cigar, very nicely done folks! Keep it up.

As a complete Newb and having tried the regular Mitchellero range I was really amazed at how much more pleasant a smoke this was. Had far more hints of wood and leather and the final third was a beautiful peppery hit.
Will certainly be ordering the box of 20 I was that impressed.

Ordered the Sample pack, smoked this one yesterday, really liked it.
A nice 40-45min afternoon smoke, with a Coffee, and a Bourbon.
Given the price point, there was no harsh surprises, smooth, a nice background taste, and aroma. The ash was was a consistent Grey, not huge plunges of smoke, the burn was very consistent all the way down.
I used a V Cutter, which gave ‘me’ a nice amount of intake. This Cigar, unlike some I’ve purchased at this point are a good ‘bang for buck’ the Conquistadors I’ve had have knots in, go out, and crumble at the Cap end!! I’m hoping this was just a bad batch of them, we’ll see when I retry then?
But, too be honest, I can see these Peru’s being my go too Cigar..excellent value.

Well I got one of each of these to try after a recommendation last weekend and I have to say I was very surprised how good they are. Im smoking the Gordo with my morning coffee as I type and theyre complementing each other beautifully. Theres a very nice balance of room note and taste I get the very nutty taste from this and a good long retrohale that doesnt have you in tears. I would recommend these to a new starter as for the price its a very good introductory smoke 5/5 👍
