An excellent choice with a slight hint of nostalgia. From the first draw you are hit with the smell of pipe smoke and slightly sweet taste. The cigar is quite tightly packed but has an easy draw and is an easy smoke. It is a slight break from the norm and an excellent choice for a budget cigar. This will go well with a single malt whiskey.

Delivery: Five stars for C.Gars, as always. The service is consistently flawless.
Construction: This is a unique, "cute" little cigar - small and chunky. The construction is easily five-star quality; it features a smooth wrapper with almost no veins. The pre-light draw was perfect, and during the smoke, it held a very even burn and solid ash. It feels like a much more expensive cigar in the hand.
Experience: It has a great physical presence - honestly, you feel a bit like Hannibal from The A-Team with this in your mouth.
Flavour Profile: While the construction is elite, the flavour didn't quite hit the mark for my personal palate. It offers plenty of spice and pepper but lacks significant depth. Comparing it to my usual favourite, the Partagas Serie E No. 2 (same 54 ring gauge), it misses that specific complexity.
Verdict: Despite the flavour not being my "cup of tea," the ring gauge and build quality are superb. I’ll be buying a few more to age in the humidor to see how they develop.

Very tight draw had to recut with a v cutter to get anything out of it. Maybe would need a needle poked through to release the draw and some more flavour profile. Wasn’t a great smoke but was part of a sampler. If do get it again somewhere will try a different method to see if can get it to smoke better.

I prefer this size as I like a big ring gauge .I suggest you use a punch and avoid cutting off the end, as that can lead to problems! The draw is nice and easy, and the construction is much better than the 'Blue variety', which is, of course, my opinion. I like the change in strength as you smoke it down, and I appreciate that.
