Probably the most attractive looking wrapper I've ever seen, slightly mottled, it has a red/brown mahogany colour and has so much oil on the surface it appears to be made of velvet. The band is a masterclass in understated elegance, it looks like the label on a small batch, artisan bourbon...which it would undoubtedly pair with magnificently.
Cut with a guillotine the draw was somewhat airy, which is honestly the only thing I'd change, construction was utterly flawless, well packed and even with zero corrections or touch ups needed, smoke output was perfect, thick and cool.
Flavours are initially potent with lots of pepper alongside rich, earthy notes and espresso coffee, it settles into a complex balance of dry cedar, leather and cacao alongside a surprising lemony schezwan pepper...compete with the subtle numbing effect.
Strength is surprisingly low, body is consistently medium, would actually be a decent cigar for a reative newcomer...if not for the complexity.
Can't recommend enough, buy lots of them.

This is a beautiful cigar and punching well above its weight! A superb Smokey, sweet, tan & cognac all rounder. Anyone who enjoys a montecristo I expect would appreciate this offering as a thoroughly enjoyable, slightly lighter smoke

Mitchellero Sporty Cigar - 1 Single
by daniel
Definitely on my buy again list, it's definitely a mild smoke, especially when compared to it's bigger brothers. But at around 30 minutes it's the perfect quick smoke. Nice and light at the start but some earthy, peppery notes come through at the end. For the price point it's a winner.

I received the Blackbird Crow as last month’s mystery cigar, so only paid £10 for it. Burned really well from the get go. Really enjoyed the first 2 thirds, but became a little bitter during the last third. Took me 75 minutes to smoke, overall. Plenty of smoke and flavour and I paired it with a large glass of Leiper’s Fork bourbon. Not sure I’d pay the £17.50 standard price but was impressed for the price I paid.

Revor Plug Pipe Tobacco - 10g Sample
by David
Good old no nonsense honest to god old faithful pipe tobacco. Yes it's a bit of a pain to get going, despite being an easy plug to work with but this is well worth the effort. It's not gonna blow your socks off with flavour, but it's not gonna leave you disappointed either. Thick plumes of smoke, a deep rich flavour, and enough interest to keep you coming back. It's hard to give it a full 5 stars as nothing stands out, but I could see easily see myself smoking this and nothing else. So 5 stars it is.

Lovely smoke, that packs a punch! Just smoked this whilst walking the dog on a nice summers evening, very pleasant, was expecting it to be a little milder, nice dark chocolate notes, eat something first.
