As I enjoy the Chinchalero range, I was looking forward to this cigar and thought it would be slightly stronger and possibly even more flavoursome. Sadly I did not find this, and actually thought it was quite bland.

Awesome bit of kit! This is extremely reliable! My friend has 1 of these too so we did a test to see how accurate they are within each other. We expected a plus or minus but to our surprise they both read the same humity level in 2 different humidors....i need say no more.

Chinchalero Picadillos Cigar - 1 Single
by Gerard
I am new to the world of cigar smoking, and my cigar of choice is the Robusto. I have tried several brands including the Hoyo De Montarey Epicure No2 which was very nice, but must agree with all of the other reviews regarding this cigar, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It burned really evenly and was a very pleasant smoke GREAT value for the money and I will be ordering more.

A very common question answered, Do I remove my box of 25 tubed cigars from their tubes before putting them in my humidor, the answer is YES, so what's the reasoning behind this definite answer, Tobacco is an Hygroscopic material which has the ability to absorb or release moisture depending on it's local environment if the environment is humid the cigar will absorb moisture until it equalizes with the environment if the environment is dry the cigar will release moisture, so that's the science lesson finished, the next variable is quality control in an ideal world all tubed cigars would contain the ideal moisture level and the sealed tube would maintain this but we don't live in an ideal world so you have the possibility of tubed cigars even out of the same box being under humidified, ideal or over humidified, so basically you take pot luck as to the condition of your tubed cigars, so what do i do to get consistency, put the untubed cigars in a correctly set up humidor around 68 RH and around 18c temperature, from the science lesson the under humidified cigars will take on moisture an

Chinchalero Chicos Cigar - Box of 25
by Ronald
Bought one of these Chicos and a La Invicta Panatella with the idea that, having smoked them both i would then decide which bundle of 25 to purchase. I went for the Chicos as i found the La Invicta a little harsh, and although slightly more expensive i thought it 'smoked' cheaper. The Chico and La Invicta both smoked for app 45 minutes, ash held slightly better on the Chico. If you want a 45 minute break from the world go for the Chicos.

Cohiba Coronas Especiales Cigar - 1 Single
by Alistair
Castro's favourite and I can see why. Although the draw feels tight the burn is even and its light yet creamy smoke plentiful enough for you to get over this. As far as flavour goes, this cigar exibits the typical Cohiba spice but with a much sweeter chocolate note than in any other Cohiba I've tried. Earthy coffee flavours become prominent after the first 1/3 (following the chocolate 'topping' its like the cappucinno of cigars!). I'd love to be able to say that this is a perfect every day smoke, however at £16 a stick, I'm not that flush... still, this will go down as a firm favourite (hopefully the one I've left in the humidor will be even better).
