Nice little cigar. I've ordered these a few times and they make a fantastic 20 minute smoke for when time is short. Quite a smooth smoke with a peppery finish. I did however have one which went super bitter mid way. Could of been a bad stick, what do you want at under £2 per cigar. Will definitely be purchasing again

Not a bad smoke was expecting a bit more after reading the reviews, didn't really live up to the star ratings that it has been getting, however the Draw was ok and ash stacked up nicley but felt the flavour was a bit lacking and not as smooth as i would like Not really my kind of smoke.

I guess this would be a good cigar for beginners.
Out of the packet, the stick has a spongy feel. Sniff test: Mild tobacco with (bizarrely) a faint underscore of urine.
Initial impressions upon lighting: A nice, loose draw, with plenty of mild-tasting smoke. There's a mild taste of tobacco with an added underscore of cedar wood that lingers only briefly on your tongue.
The first third had a good, steady burn. The ash is loose, and falls away within barely an inch. There's no change in the pleasant, mellow flavour.
The middle third introduced a mild taste of creamy chocolate for a few draws. I also detected a taste of hops which, again, didn't last long.
The final third maintained that mild taste. It did get a little stronger but it was still no more than a mild stick.
In conclusion, this is a mild, mellow-tasting stick I would imagine would be an ideal starter for someone who hasn't smoked cigars before. Burn time is about 20 minutes so it's ideal for those with little time to spare.
At the price, this is an okay smoke ideal for beginners.

Picked a few of these up recently to make a comparison between a few budget and a few slightly up market cigars. From a relative newbie, this was an enjoyable smoke. Very little complexity but plenty smooth. Bitter at times but very enjoyable on the whole. Is the 20ish minute smoke time suitable? Definitely. It's a little bland to spend much more than that. I enjoyed mine moments ago with a late morning coffee.
The build quality is questionable; mine had started unravelling at the pre-cut. I bought two and upon checking the second, it looks of far better build. Perhaps I just got a shabby one!
If you're a beginner, this is a great start. However, I also purchased a Clubmaster Tubed Panatella - vanilla in the same order. For the extra quid or so, that had a fantastic build, tubed and wrapped and in my humble opinion, was even smoother. No, it's not Cuban but who cares at this price point?
If you can stretch to the above Clubmaster, do so. If not, this is worthy of the price.

Very surprised by this as it was inexpensive and came in uninspiring brown packaging, regardless this was a very smooth and enjoyable smoke. Last me about an hour and kept its taste to the end. Very happy with it.
