Mitchellero Torcedor Cigar - Box of 20

I’ve recently finished a bundle of 20 of these. 3/5 review score reflects the mixture of good price and fairly poor quality that I experienced. I know these are very good value for money and yes, I’d probably buy again based on their affordability, but there were very obvious quality issues and they weren’t my favourite in terms of flavour. Perhaps they’d improve with some time spent in a humidor, I don’t know, but at this price bracket I suspect most people are hoping they’d be ‘ready to go’ rather than buying them to age them further. The very flaky and thin wrapper issue that others have described was present on at least 15 out of the 20. Each lasted around 30-40 minutes and burned fairly evenly other than the disintegration of the outer layer. I’d not recommend trying to cut them either; a little pin prick in the end is enough given the relatively loose draw, otherwise the risk of a flaky cap was also present. In summary: not bad for the price, but not a surprise hit either.

Lovely little smoke this, I've also tried the Corona and Robusto, this is a perfect little smoke if you dont like the strength of the Robusto.

3 out of 3 had severe wrapper issues. I’ve never got to the final third on one of these as the wrapper has usually disintegrated by halfway down. Nice flavours really let down by being poorly made and major wrapper issues. Won’t be buying anymore of these which is a shame but the poor QA issues with the wrapper are too bad to overlook.

Best cigar experience Ive had so far, smoked straight. Wonderful flavour. 30 minutes of chocolate and spice. Outstanding value for money.

Ordered two last week and gave the first one a try today. Used a punch. Smooth coffee and dark chocolate flavour and then toasty nuts in the first half and very mild. An initially even burn ended when the very thin wrapper split halfway down and the burn line went a little wavy. This did make it awkward to get a good draw. The flavour transitioned towards an increasing pepperiness, lost much of its sweetness and moved towards more of a bitter, liquorice type taste. Never overpowering. Great for the price. Pleasant post lunch smoke and would give it a higher mark if it weren’t for the wrapper split issue.
