Pleased with my bonus cigar. A pleasant quick after lunch smoke with coffee and a Brandy. Thank you C.Cigars for the offer.

Recieved this as my first "mystery cigar" quite a coincidence as I have enjoyed the Conviction Robusto in the past. So this is simply a smaller version. Was a nice 30ish minute smoke. Flavourful and easy to puff on. Perfect if you're enjoying a quiet drink somewhere or for a "pit stop" smoke to pass the time. Burned nice and evenly throughout, highly recommend if you haven't tried a Chateau before, it's a great litmus test.

The main and only tasting note for me was a bitter chilli spice. I didn't notice any of the sweetness described in the tasting notes, but I paired it with a medium bodied red wine which may have masked it. I found this cigar to be light in strength and lacking in complexity. Not a bad smoke but not a particularly good one either.

So far very pleased with my purchase. A great way to get set up: multiple cigars, cutter, whisky, and a usable box! I also ordered the lighter which completed this set up. I'll place reviews of individual cigars on the appropriate page. The cutter is excellent; very sharp and easy to use. This makes the experience of prepping the cigar a pleasure and takes out the guess work. Whisky was superb; not at all like a lit of Scottish whiskies and overly peaty for my tastes. This whisky was mellow and complimented the cigar I chose. I know the vendor is open about savings buying this way, send thats good, however, if I'd gone another route the cutter and lighter on their own would have added significantly to the price. Both items are more than sufficient. Although, we all know we like tools and gadgets so these items will be added to eventually. For now they are more that adequate. I live the box. I was expecting something a little less substantial, but this box is wooden (cedar?) and has a great seal. Supplied is the obligatory Boveda. I have three now and will utilise in my novice

A well constructed cigar which burned without any touch ups. For me it was a creamy flavour turning a bit spicy on the retro hale half way through. The draw was just right for me. A good all round cigar in my humble opinion. Definitely worth a try.

Cohiba Shorts Cigar - 1 Single
by Edward
It's like smoking a log. Very ashy, bonfirey. Tastes like a dodgy cigarette. No real development of flavour.
The construction was good - very dense, with an even burn and tight draw.
Overall, quite poor and I won't be buying this again. You might like it if you prefer cigarette flavours. IMO, the Trinidad and Davidoff shorts are much better for the same price.
