Charatan Churchill Cigar - 1 Single by David

What a pleasure ! I dont often review, well this is my 1st ! But the flavour of this cigar is still on my lips and Id like to give it credit. A big cigar, a Churchill at 7 and 48 ring gauge at £13.39 but you already know that. Before lighting; it has a lovely medium dark binder, no flaws I can see, no glue repairs needed, nice clean aroma. It cut very cleanly and the pre light draw was open and free from any plugs that I can feel. Toasted and lit the first draw was cool with a good rounded flavour, mild for such a large cigar, after a couple of minutes it came to life, my kind of life, what a soothing flavour. I settled down hoping against disappointment, and it never happened. I started at 15:40 ended at 17:30, note I smoke slowly, compared to what Ive read from others, I want to take my time, this hobby aint a cheap one, I gave up cigarettes 6 years ago after 40 odd years so now I can afford the odd cigar now and then, and I dont cough my guts out in the morning, a blessing! First impressions...I LIKE! Very even burn, compared to many, extremely nice taste on the lip and through

Cuaba Divinos Cigar - 1 Single by Chris

I enjoyed smoking this cigar, I found the flavours to be quite earthy and found a nuance of chocolate in the 2nd third. I agree with some of the other reviews which state that the draw is rather tight. I did find that this was the case and because of this the cigar did go out once or twice. I made a 2nd cut and removed an extra 2mm or so from the cap which made the draw much more free, so I would recommend other users to do the same. Overall it was a pleasant smoke and made for a relaxing 30 mins in the garden with a nice coffee.

Cuaba Distinguidos Cigar - 1 Single by Robert

Quite mild, but a good flavour. Terrible construction though, Im not sure if I got a bad one. Wrapper was cracked, and when I cut it a large portion came off. Smoked ok until I got to the band, but when I removed it, I realised that the split covered about half of the cigar so the last 3rd was wasted. A bit of a disappointment for a £25 stick.

Cohiba Exquisitos Cigar - 1 Single by Martin

I’ve different variations of Cohiba cigars and this one did not disappoint. The same great quality of construction and taste that is synonymous with this maker. Just in a slightly smaller format. The almost panatella shape and size made smoking time slightly shorter but just as enjoyable...

Chinchalero Esportivo Cigar - 1 Single by Bryan

Glad I bought these before reading the negative reviews. Great little cigar for under six quid. Cellaphane wrapped, easy draw, good tight build, long ash, even burn.

Charatan Corona Machine Made Cigar - 1 Single by Dominic

Obviously these arent bank breakers. More of a large cigarette, no flavour to speak of apart from just harsh tobacco. Id recommend an Inka, or apparently the Mitchelleros are good for around the same price. But I cant recommend these sadly - I wasnt enjoying it and snubbed it out eventually. I tend to stick to the rule that if its pre-cut its probably not great. But its £5.80 including tax, so what are you really expecting.
