This was part of an Avo sampler offer and tried it a few nights ago. I'm not great at identifying different tastes in a cigar but picked up what seemed to be a lovely chocolate taste in the first part. Fairly loose draw but plenty of delicious smoke and burnt well. Thoroughly enjoyed this and would buy again.

The J. Cortes High Class Dominican Corona (White Tubed) is a nice, decent sized cigar that offers good value for money. It’s mild and smooth with no harshness or lingering aftertaste, which makes it an easy smoke, especially if you prefer something lighter. The construction’s solid, and the tube makes it handy to store without worrying about a humidor for a while.
For me though, it’s just a bit too mild. I found myself wishing for a bit more depth or a touch of sweetness on the lips, which this one doesn’t really have. Still, it’s a pleasant, uncomplicated cigar and a good option if you like mellow flavours or want something to enjoy without too much intensity.

First Gurkha heritage, straight cut. Beautiful smoke and kept ash extremely well. Good draw and pleasant flavour which was consistent throughout. Really impressed and will buy again as thoroughly enjoyed paired with a dark spiced rum

This was my first time trying Camacho and I was very pleasantly surprised. Well made, it burned straight and clean all the way down until the final third where I had to relight it once. I spent an enjoyable hour with this cigar and will be adding it to my rotation. Highly recommended if you have not tried these.

Great cigar for the price point. Didn't start off great, but definitely started to come into its own in the last part.
Great afternoon / summer smoke, not too long to get through. Little bit of a tight draw, which I personally don't like, but apart from that, a very good overall cigar.
Only needing touching up once

Beautiful sub 15 quid cigar.. slight canoe in the burn in the 1st third but was dealt with easily and burnt beautifully afterwards. Smooth mild flavours and earthy, deep rich roasted coffee, is what I got out of it. No bitterness towards the end, great draw and certainly as a intro into cuban this is superb for the money. With a nice leisurely smoke it lasted around 50mins paired with a black coffee and a small couple of chunks of dark chocolate..
