La Flor Dominicana El Carajon Cigar - 1 Single
by GENEVIEVE
Wow! What a great value cigar this is for the price! The wrapper is one of the best I have experienced - very robust and contributes to an even burn with almost two inches of ash before it departed. Well packed and a cool smoke, its surprisingly sweet without being at all sickly. Wonderful flavours of toasted almonds a lightly burnt/biscuity caramel, reminiscent of those little stroopwafels one can enjoy with a coffee all topped off with a light pepperiness. As you progress, youre rewarded with additional undertones of chocolate and a touch of vanilla. Word of warning though if you do not smoke full-bodies cigars often...this was a little deceptive in that despite being full of flavour, for me it seemed lighter than my go-to cubans (Romeo Y Julietta puritos) but the strength caught me a little off guard at the end...glad I was stretched out on the sofa! All in all a very enjoyable way to spend 50 minutes and would definitely recommend.

I had the rum flavour of this cigar a couple of nights ago, which was quite pleasant without being anything special. This smoke, though, was a hugely disappointing experience. From the moment I took it out of the cellophane it had a nasty smell to it. The only thing I can compare it to is a urinal. I thought this may have been in my head but others seemed to agree. It had a very tight draw and it burnt unevenly. Im still learning the technique as this is a new hobby to me, so I wasnt sure if it were down to me smoking it incorrectly, but reading the review below it seems these problems werent unique to me. One to be avoided.

This is the kind of smoke you love, then you have one left and you wait 3 years to smoke it and it is so good it brings tears to your eye as you wish you had bought a cabinet of 50 so you would have 41 left!! Buy it for instant class, save it for a profound experience

Lovley smelling cigar just Not a good smoke, thought id try it going by the reviews, very tight draw, was a fight to try get some smoke, even then there was no flavour just a horrible after taste, uneven burn, the 1st cigar Ive outed and binned, hopefully was just a bad 1 but not for me.

Pretty sweet start with hints of hay, honey and cotton candy. Very good draw. Progressed to more light tobacco flavour, probably pair well with a light beer/ale or a dessert wine. 45 minutes aided with a cigar spear.

La Galera Habano Bonchero No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by Jonathan
Now this is really something special, The aroma that comes off this before it’s lite is wonderful.Cuts and burns perfectly, easy draw and perfect combustion.Yes it’s a little over what I would normally spend (I usually like exploring the under £10 range) but the reviews here and else where made it one I had to try and I’m glad I did.Its smooth, flavourful and softly mild,no bitterness or foul aftertaste.
