The sampler itself is fantastic, very clearly distinct flavours and a great way to learn about the base notes in pipe tobacco.
However I do have one gripe: I really loved the White&Black, it was very aromatic and energising and beautiful. So I ordered a full tin. And the full tin is almost nothing like it. Its still a pleasant tobacco but it doesn't taste like the sampler, which begs the question, what the point of the sampler is? I still enjoyed the content and I'm not displeased but this set doesn't really serve its purpose.

Not to my personal taste, rather too bitter.
Uneven burn throughout, requiring constant touch ups to little effect. Too much of a struggle to be enjoyable.

Well constructed light cigar with a good burn time and mild flavor not much in terms of taste but just a smooth smoke throughout, something you don’t have to think too much about.
Lots of smoke production, burns slightly too fast and too hot but besides that a decent smoke for the price.

Lovely smooth cigar, one of my go to cigars to go with a coffee..takes about 25 minutes to smoke.

Kristoff Robusto Cigar - 1 Single

Lighter than picture would indicate, more of a habano wrapper, mocha coloured and buttery soft to the touch, nice looking cigar.
Cut with a single V, draw was initially fairly tight but it opened up in 2/3 to produce a decent amount of cool, white smoke. Burn again was initially a touch uneven; however, again in the 2/3 it self corrected and didn't need any touch ups.
Surprisingly light in body and strength, noticeable signature Nicaraguan spice upfront alongside lots of cedar, joined by light bodied coffee and roasted nut, finishes dry with leather and a touch of unexpected caramel sweetness.

First time trying Chieftain Roberts mixture, its not for me, i found it to be a bit harsh on the throat, the taste was not to my liking either. I found it to burn ok with not alot of ash, this would suit people who like a stronger tobacco with mainly a tobacco taste without a hint of anything else.
