Cohiba Siglo I Cigar - 1 Single
by Jason
Good Cigar if you only have 45 mins to one hour smoking time. Great taste did have to relight once but burned evenly. Well worth a try if you are looking into starting smoking cigars, won't break the bank.

I bought two of these for me and a friend and we both had the same thoughts on this cigar. It started off well enough. Even burn, nice mild taste and good construction. However it quickly started burning unevenly and turned harsh after half an inch. It also kept going out.
This cigar seems high maintenance and requires constant attention.
I'll probably buy a few more to test however

Chinchalero Chicos Cigar - 1 Single
by Jason
Well I guess for the money they are ok. But if you are looking at buying a Cigar for the first time they I would not buy these. Mine have been sitting in a Humidor for four weeks, so today I decided to light one up. Harsh is a word to describe the smoke. Burned well but it was not the most enjoyable smoke I've had. The other one I'll pass on to a friend whilst I try a Cohiba Siglo 1. Still have to find a Cigar that matches the Montecristo Tubos. For me I would rather save up and have a few great cigars than buy the cheaper end of the market.

The most expensive cigar I've ever smoked but also the best. Unless you're brewsted and can afford to smoke these all the time then you owe it to yourself to smoke at least one.

Thought I'd give this size of cigar a go and bought one of these, a Chinchalero Novillo Fuerte Maduro, a La Rica Gordito and a La Rica Gordito Maduro.
When I opened the bag they came in, there was a strong smell of the camel house at Chester Zoo. Being relatively new to cigars and none of the cigars I'd previously bought smelling like this, I was a bit worried that I'd bought duds. Took a quick look at some forums and the conscensus strangely appeared to be that the more they smelt like manure the better the cigar would taste. Hurrah for the conscensus!
This cigar had the peppery taste I like in Cuban cigars though it wasn't as strong as I'd like. Overall it lasted about an hour or so. The cigar got a bit messy at the end but I'd more than had my monies worth by then.
If I had room in my humidor I'd buy a box of these as well as the Fuerte Maduro. As it is I had a slight preference for the Maduro so I'm buying a box of them instead. Though I'll definitely be buying a box of these when my previous choice of cheaper cigars - Jose L Piedra - run out.

Being relatively new to cigars and none of the cigars I'd previously bought smelling like this, I was a tad perturbed to say the least. Took a quick look at some forums and the conscensus strangely appeared to be that the more they smelt like manure the better the cigar would taste. The conscensus was spot on!
This cigar had a lovely chocolatey taste that I'd say wasn't far off the Montecristo Grand Edmundo 2010 I'd recently tried and was a fifth of the price. There was over an hour of smoking to be had as well. It's hard to tell how long exactly because I tend not to smoke them all in one go.
I was so impressed that lacking the cash to buy the company, I've settled for ordering a box of 20.
