Brick House Robusto Cigar - 1 Single

If you can get past the first half then it’s just ok, it’s a decent draw and well built on the plus side.

Bolivar Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single

Nice strong cigar. And the size for me was perfect as it is strong but very enjoyable 30 - 40 min smoke.

A very nice little smoke at the price. Sweet, easy draw. Nothing to dislike here.

First off an admission, Im a new cigar smoker. Ive been smoking a pipe for the past 18 months but never really felt at home with it. The bad smokes outweighed the good by some margin. Ive tried cigars before but due to limits on my personal finances theyve all been at the bottom of the budget ladder. Small, harsh and very hot would best describe them. Then someone gifted me some quality Cuban and New World cigars and I was hooked. Had a kind of where have you been all my life moment. I knew I was a convert but the budget restrictions remained so I had to look for what I could afford. After some research I first tried a Wintermans Corona Sumatra from my local Asda and was pleasantly surprised. Thought it wouldnt hurt to give these a go. Can only say that to my newbie palate they are very acceptable indeed. Low price, good draw, tightly packed, and only really get too hot in the last quarter, and Ive even got around that by employing one of my pipes. Slip the butt in and continue with a very pleasant smoke down to the nub! Sorry of that offends you experienced cigar smoker

Week constructed, so cut cleanly with chocolate and cedar on the nose and a good open draw.
The initial smoke is creamy and light with a hint of coffee; coupled with the sweet Connecticut wrapper was reminiscent of a caramel latte. This prompted me to prepare an espresso to enjoy with my smoke.
I really enjoyed the second third as a little black pepper spice kicked in, but the smoke reamined creamy and light and the sweetness changed to a sugar cane like sweetness, which took me back to a recent Jamaican holiday.
Final third the spice tries to raise its game, along with woody notes but the sweet creamy balance continues to shine through.
Burned neatly enough with cool smoke throughout.
One to enjoy in the morning sun with a coffee.

Very good draw, but the first half of this cigar was a bit harsh. Seeing a strong looking white ash grow I persevered and was rewarded with a lovely unique tasting cigar developing that was very moorish and had a nice little kick to it. I am definitely going to get another one believing that I was unlucky with the first half of this one. It was a pleasure to smoke this interesting enjoyable cigar.
