BLACK FRIDAY - Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single by Chris

Im relatively new to smoking cigars so keep that in mind when reading this review. I purchased a box of 5 and my first impression was that these cigars smell fantastic, very rich and chocolately. As for the construction the wrappers on at least 2 of the 5 are wrinkled in places and look like they could easily tear and seams are quite visible, the binder/filler look fine however all 5 cigars feel very firm, almost rock solid. The draw is incredibly tight and I found myself having to really fight to get a decent smoke output, which for me takes away from the experience. As a cigar newbie I found the flavours to be very pleasing to begin with, earthy and woody with hints of spice that become more prominent on the retrohale however the spice was never overwhelming and the smoke was silky smooth. Unfortunately I hit serious problems about half way into the cigar, the draw remained very tight and I had to relight twice in 10 minutes! When it went out for a 3rd time I admitted defeat and gave up. The 4 remaining cigars will go in my humidor to be aged, I really hope I have a better experien

Bolivar Tubos No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single by Ruben

Novice smoker (Sampled H.Upmann, Montecristo, RyJ and J.L.P cigars) this one is a marvellous little smoke, you won’t be disappointed. Spicy and zesty with excellent draw and a clean after taste. I can’t delve into all the complex flavours as I’m quite new to Cubans but I found this one very pleasing and typical of the Cubans I tried in Miami. Very authentic, earthy flavour to be expected from this brand. Lasted just shy of 40 mins, with modest toking. Will sample more Bolivar, for sure.

Bolivar Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single by William

Was really enjoying this one, until the final third! The first third is mellow, with a light to medium flavour, which strengthens as it burns into the second third. It’s spicy and oaky, with hints of creaminess, but then it all goes to pot! It had trouble staying lit and burned unevenly in the final third. The taste went south too, with a huge hit within half an inch of the wrapper. I don’t know if I will try another one, as I got this out of a sampler...

BLACK FRIDAY - J. Cortes High Class Sumatran Cigar - Blue - 1 Single by Sean

A nostalgic smoke for me. Even so I find I can always come back to this when looking for a smoke that fits a budget. Comes pre punched so no cutting necessary (unless you prefer yours cut). Another mild smoke that must of lasted me around 40-50 minutes. Even burn and solid construction. No complaints!

BLACK FRIDAY - Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single by Mark

Main outer leaf unravelled and had to relight multiple times; it also canoed down one side. I just wanted to look like Che Guevara but I ended up looking like a prick.
