I'm a big fan of C&D blends and this one delivers perfectly. As someone who tends to steer clear of pure Virginia blends, this was eye opening. A sweet and flavour filled blend that continues the gorgeous taste through the entire bowl. Be warned, this is a great nicotine hit, and will leave you wobbly. Very pleased I took a gamble on a tin.

A simply easy to smoke blend that's as close to shag cut without actually being as you can get. You get a nice deep smoke but that's about it. There's not much complexity here and it's a very dry smoke even when fresh. Nicotine is medium at most so don't expect a good hit even with a bowl full.

This blend gets a lot of love but sadly for me I got nothing from it. I tried it moist, slightly dry, and crispy, it just never improved or had any flavour. I trust that good tobacco was used but I didn't even get that. I'm glad I have it a go but happy I didn't commit to a tin.

Glad to report Curivari continues to thumb its nose at sticks over twice their price.
This Robusto, and the Corona are 'must stock' items for me. I have never had the slightest problem with these cigars. Perfect burn, lovely construction/wrappers, plenty of smoke from a perfect draw.
This is not a smoke to sit there po faced scratching your chin trying to find the subtle flavours of Grandma's handbag but rather chatting away with a group of friends and a couple of beers they become a part of the enjoyment.
I would definitely rate them slightly on the mild side of medium progressing to the fuller side as it progresses. I probably wouldn't rate it as a morning smoke/ breakfast cigar but after lunch right through to dinner no problem. That said, I think this is an easy one to pair. A cold beer or wine with lunch, absolutely great with a double espresso and enough going on to finish with a dark spiced rum or a gentle, non petty malt.
Profile for me was uncomplicated, simply a nice well rounded flavour with very gentle spice, hardly makes your nostrils tingle on the re

Very nice smoke. Quite sweet at times but good draw and no complaints.
Had this one before as part of the mystery cigar scheme and would highly recommend.
Affordable price and lasted about 40 minutes.

A very light and refreshing smoke. Tin note is subtle with a hint of raisins and citrus, and room note is similar. Burned very well with little need to relight, and left a very fine, crumbly ash behind. Dottle was almost non-existent. Flavours probably a little too mild for me as I have a poor sense of smell but I did enjoy my first bowl, and would be happy to smoke again if I didn't have anything else available.
