On bowl 3 of this, supposedly a replacement for Dunhill Dark Flake. Its not. The tin note is fruity, the Dark Flake is rawer, more tobacco. The flakes are similar in appearance, cut, thickness, length. Taste is also different, certainly a good quality but not as good as the Dunhill original. The start of the bowl hits you with a definite fruit flavour, not unpleasantly just assuredly. Halfway down the bowl the flavour fades somewhat reverting to a purer tobacco taste. The final shock to the palate is a subtle hint of vanilla just before the last few breaths. An enjoyable tobacco I found but certainly NOT Dunhill Dark.

Right, now this little chap just looks seyx doesnt it, and the way it smokes isnt half bad either. Remember when buying this is a Petit Corona, ie. short of length, but big in personality. I smoked the first on in just over 20m, but thats just me, out walking with the dogs in a brisk English winter morning on the east coast. So the wind may have contributed negatively of my time spent enjoying this lil fella. I found the flavour to me mid to mild, starting smooth and ramping up the warm woody flavours mid-way in. I finished without feeling any scorch to the back of the throat or bitterness which was a nice touch. Would I buy again? Yes I think I would. I purchased this one in a selection of cheap cigars, but it doesnt give a cheap experience. Recommended and a new favourite.

Cohiba Siglo III Tubed Cigar - 1 Single
by Samuel
Just smoking one now. First impressions are that it looks good, feels great in hand. Even burn with a mild flavour. The draw, however, is terrible. Straight cut and now even prodded through to help. I held off Cohiba, due to it being a major brand, sometimes these run off established reputation. I am majorly disappointed and think this will be my last for a while. I duly hope that this is a bad roll but compared to lesser brands, this is no way a quality cigar that I expected. I understand this is probably a mid low end of their range but, for the money, is no excuse for such a prestigious name.

Good looking little cigars. Good for a quick smoke but I found that the flavours weren’t the best for me. So that’s why I am only giving 3 stars.

Thought I'd give these a whirl. On first appearance you have a nice looking and substantial cigar for the money. Nice even burn but my god the draw is not good having previously smoked the novilla in this range I would of expected the same quality, unfortunately not the case. Overall the taste isn't to bad I have a couple in the humidor so will let them age a while before revisiting. Hence the 3 star
