JANUARY SALE - Drew Estate Blackened M81 Maduro Corona Cigar - 1 Single by Iain

I had been wanting to try this for a while due to the great reviews it had been receiving in the cigar press, and now it is available in the UK. First impressions were of an attractive and well constructed cigar that cuts, lights and draws easily. It also had one of the most even burns that I have experienced for a while. However, although the tasting notes are generally correct (chocolate and espresso in the background) I didn't pick up much sweetness or fruit due to the overwhelming taste of pepper. I don't mind strong and spicy, but you can have too much of a good thing. For me this cigar lacks balance in the way it delivers its flavours. Perhaps some more age/time in the humidor would help, or a different vitola. I wouldn't out anyone off trying this if strong and peppery is your thing but, personally, I don't think that I am likely to try this again as it didn't quite live up to the hype.

J. Cortes High Class Honduran Cigar - Orange - Box of 10 by Paul

Poor, very poor. Badly made, out of the 10 cigars I could only smoke 3 of them, terrible I personally would not buy these again.

JANUARY SALE - Drew Estate Blackened M81 Maduro Robusto Cigar - 1 Single by james

Was looking forward to trying this cigar. I am most taken by the ease of draw, flavours of leather and caramel, bitterness is beautifully balanced with port. I love the calming nature of a cigar like this, it's rich and balanced, I will definitely smoke this cigar again. I see this as a party cigar, one to be enjoyed with friends.

Juliany Maduro Corona Cigar - 1 Single by Steve

Really enjoyed this, strong flavour throughout and no issues with the draw with a slightly creamy final 3rd. This may be my new day-to-day smoke!
