I was pleasantly surprised when I received this as a mystery cigar and have been looking forward to trying this. The cigar is very smooth to the touch and has some nice flavour on the cold draw. Once lit its very smooth, held ash very well. I enjoyed it from start to finish and would certainly buy one for a special occasion and be on the hunt for one in duty free

This one took me by surprise. An incredible tin note and matching taste of dark fruits and cognac in a perfect blend of leaves and varieties. I smoked this one slightly damp so took some relights along the way but was otherwise a perfect smoke. I wish there were more C&D blends on the UK market.

Cohiba Exquisitos Cigar - 1 Single
by Martin
Had this as my second cigar when visiting the puffin rooms Edinburgh. It was lit by staff and was a lovely light cohiba compared to some of the other cohiba I have tried. It ashed well with a medium Cuban twang and was a lovely way to spend the afternoon

This was my first cigar, peppery and earthy got a bit hot half way through that being said I enjoyed it and wouldn't turn one down if offered but may not buy another.

I'm a big fan of C&D blends and this one delivers perfectly. As someone who tends to steer clear of pure Virginia blends, this was eye opening. A sweet and flavour filled blend that continues the gorgeous taste through the entire bowl. Be warned, this is a great nicotine hit, and will leave you wobbly. Very pleased I took a gamble on a tin.

Glad to report Curivari continues to thumb its nose at sticks over twice their price.
This Robusto, and the Corona are 'must stock' items for me. I have never had the slightest problem with these cigars. Perfect burn, lovely construction/wrappers, plenty of smoke from a perfect draw.
This is not a smoke to sit there po faced scratching your chin trying to find the subtle flavours of Grandma's handbag but rather chatting away with a group of friends and a couple of beers they become a part of the enjoyment.
I would definitely rate them slightly on the mild side of medium progressing to the fuller side as it progresses. I probably wouldn't rate it as a morning smoke/ breakfast cigar but after lunch right through to dinner no problem. That said, I think this is an easy one to pair. A cold beer or wine with lunch, absolutely great with a double espresso and enough going on to finish with a dark spiced rum or a gentle, non petty malt.
Profile for me was uncomplicated, simply a nice well rounded flavour with very gentle spice, hardly makes your nostrils tingle on the re
