Such a pretty cigar — but that was about it, for me. First two thirds were a big disappointment: burnt, harsh flavours. Final third picked up a little bit, comprising some nice earthy and peppermint notes. Can only assume I had a bit of an off stick.

Rubbish. Seriously rubbish. Flavours are decent if you can get it to burn properly but the burn is the most uneven on a cigar Ive ever seen. The wrapper started unravelling halfway through and it stopped burning several times. Dont waste your money.

Just finished smoking this. Not a fan. Great construction. Great foot smoke. But lord it tastes of nothing. I donÂ’t know if I got a dud but it has no flavour. Not enjoyable so would not recommend.

So I decided to try out one of my Gurhka Aged cigars. I have the 12, 15 and 18 tucked away in my hum. So I started with my 15 yr old Koi. I noticed that the wrapped was slightly split at the draw end, but wasnt enough to disappoint me. The first part of this amazing, lovely and sweet with a hint of spice. The sweetness continued through, but about midway I got more spice and a lovely leathery hit. And the smoke smell is just divine. But alas just after halfway the wrapper pretty much just sprang off and unraveled itself. Bit of a let down, but probably just a one off. I have another one in a hum, so we shall see if what happens next time. Greatly recommend. Four stars just because the wrapper came off.

I liked it the smoky taste but the tin smelled like a disinfectant cleaner cleaner and a car air freshener in a good way the second smell was my grandfather's opinion.

Glendronach 15 Year Old - 70cl 46%

A stunning whisky......rich, malty with Christmas cake sweetness. The sherry influence is significant but really holds all of the flavours together perfectly. This is a classic Highland dram with all the hallmarks of the genius that is Rachel Barrie (who presided over Ardbeg when Uigeadail when it won Whisky Of The Year)..This has been instantly added to my go to rotation. Buy without fear! You will not be disappointed.
