I was hoping this would be similar to the excellent Alec Bradley Shamrock Filthy Hooligan considering the almost identical look. However, this was, for me, a very disappointing experience. The cigar canoed all the way down despite three repair attempts (one of them by clipping it back completely) and lacked flavour. It had a good draw and last nearly one and a half hours. I might have had a poorly rolled cigar, so I might (might) try another in the future. For reference I bought mine from a shop with a walk-in humidor, and it had been kept in my own humidor for a week after purchase.

This lighter is average, great at throwing out a large jet flame but does not work on low or medium settings, it will just not light. It looks good however and has a nice weight to it.
I would not recommend this item as I wouldn?t want others to be disappointed in its performance. Overall for the price and it?s functionality/performance I score it 6/10.

Chinchalero Torpeditos Cigar - 1 Single
by Jonathan
This was always going to be a bit hit and miss based on the reviews. I would definitely put in light/mild category of cigar. I can't fault the burn or draw as both were fine, and it held its ash well. For me, it just lacked depth in both strength and flavour. If you like the milder cigars or you're just starting off in the world of cigars, this could be for you.

I love the divinos and traditionales so had high hopes for this. I was not disappointed. The construction draw and burn were perfect as is sometimes not the case I find with cuaba. It provided nearly an hour of medium bodied plentiful smoke. The flavour did not really develop but that was ok as it has a pleasant earthy taste. I love the shape and the wrapper had an oily sheen which was lovely to look at. Highly recommend.

Wow. This was a FANTASTIC smoke and I'm so glad I ordered two cos I can't wait to smoke another! Taste was very pronounced, but well-rounded. I'm not versed enough yet in cigars to identify single flavour elements, but there was a lot of them to enjoy - like another reviewer said, the taste developed as it went on. Lovely aroma, excellent construction too. It happened to be a perfect day in late February: sunshine, birds chirping, no wind, and this cigar complemented the experience perfectly and left me in a good mood. Lasted about an hour, no relights, I had a couple minor issues with side-burning, but easily corrected. I used a punch-cutter for this one (also from Cgars - cost me around a fiver) and it worked perfectly. FWIW I'm having a lot more consistent smokes with the larger ring-gauge cigars like this since using a punch rather than a guillotine. Absolutely worth the money, and definitely one I will buy again without a doubt - dare I say one of my faves, if not *the* favourite cigar I've smoked so far in 2024.
