Mitchellero Picadillo Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Sunday 10 July, 2022 by Gareth

Ordered 2 of these as I had previously ordered Mitchellero Robustos which were a fantastic smoke. Ive just finished the 1st one and can only say it was dissapointing. The burn was even and the taste was equally as good as the Robusto but the construction is poor. I should have left the label on as it was the only thing holding the wrapper together. Between trying to keep it together and picking bits from my mouth it was not an enjoyable experience. My only hope is that the 2nd will change my mind about these.

Straight away from the light up, a plume of smoke from an easy draw offering a nice creamy dark cocoa flavour. The start of the second third maintained a little cocoa still as well as a little cedar. Around half way through the cigar (deep into the 2nd third) it developed into a subtle woodsy (light cedar) flavour, offering a slight pepper note on the back of the tongue. The final third finished with a light pepper/spice right down to the nub. A nice, sturdy construction. The ash remained until the final third before dropping off. Very easy draw offering plenty of smoke. Fantastic flavour and development throughout the smoke, at no point turning bitter or harsh. Thoroughly enjoyed this cigar right down to the nub, will definitely purchase more to sit in my humidor!

Bought this as the Torcedor wasnt available, I love the Mitchellero blend and because I wanted to explore some other short cigars as the days get colder. I gravitate towards coronas as my perfect vitola, so larger ring gauges are not my preference. So pretty much as soon as it crossed my lips (or should I say wedged them wide open) I knew this wouldnt necessarily be my favourite. That said, there was nothing wrong with it. Burnt well, the taste was definitely agreeable, and the ash held up right until where the middle of band had been. I guess Im a corona man. Coincidentally I had come across a discussion on increasing ring gauges a week or so prior where Mitchell Orchant had described himself as an old boy for preferring the smaller gauges. Im a little bit younger, but I guess Im an old boy too. Still, if you want a short smoke and you like fifty-plus ring gauges then at this price you simply cannot lose. For that it gets a four despite my personal preferences. Another great Mitchellero.

Had 3 of these delivered as a replacement for an order that was out of stock, Im new to smoking cigars, but this has been the worst smoke for me yet, all 3 cigars had an uneven burn, the wrapper started to unravel on each one, the notes were strong with an awful lingering after taste, and the smell while smoking was awful. Another one ticked off the list but I wont purchase these again.

I recieved a reccomendation to try these when they came back in stock. For the price I was pleasantly surprised. Good even burn and a good length smoke for the length of the cigar. I wish Id have punched it rather than cutting (my usual practice) just because of the draw but this really is a lovely smoke for the money. As someone who likes Montecristos, I found these enjoyable and mild with a lovely darkest chocolate flavour. Im new to articulating what I can taste but I assure youbthese are a great cigar for the price. Will be ordering more. Should also add that C.gars Ltd have been a great supplier for me and in my opinion, cant be beaten in price or range or products. Advice is always good (Pairings etc) and any issues resolved with excellent customer service. Dont hesitate, for this price give them a try!

Fantastic cigar for the price! With a bit of care these are a great smoke, I say care as the wrappers are very fine and can crack easily. The flavour is very pleasant nice creamy mocha with the final third turning a bit more savoury and spicy. My box is nearly finished so Im glad theyre back in stock. Ive found that using a punch or piercing the end has stopped wrapper problems when cutting them.
