Lit nicely, pretty tight draw but nice flavour, developing dark chocolaty taste about halfway down, quite spicy in the final third. Had to relight after first third, but maybe I smoke too slow, or maybe this was a very tightly rolled example. The draw eased up a little after a quick massage near the band. Burned evenly enough all the way down, ash didnt hold on very long though.
Seems decent for the price as I got 45 minutes out of it (as stated above Im a slow smoker though and this seemed a tight example)
Much prefer this to the Villager export box pressed cigars which come in at a similar price. I would gladly pay the extra 30p a stick for these. Will be ordering more as a cheap midweek smoke.
Service from CGars was excellent, ordered Sat night, got here Tues morning..... Just wish Id have held off until Sunday to order, then I could have got quadruple points for Valentines Day!

La Flor Dominicana El Carajon Cigar - 1 Single
by Alexander
I once spent £7 on the Henri Wintermans- Corona Sumatra. I wouldn’t do that again, having purchased this for the same price. It’s just that I found it to be fantastic. 9 out or 10. Reminded me of Montecristo number 5, only slightly less sweet and a little spicier. Chocolate, Almonds, latte, leather, white pepper, vegetables and dry wood. I kept in my humidor to ensure perfect condition before enjoying 40 minutes to slow down and appreciate it. Strong. Harmonious aromas. Perfect draw, one inch ash. Nice robust smooth wrapper. Just buy it and take some time alone to see if it’s for your palate.

just smoked this cigar had an uneven burn but that could have been how i lit it, draw was tight for first third but got easier after the first third,was slightly harsh in first third but after that it got much better and was a lot milder and smooth i am still new to cigars and this was my first unflavoured cigar so no tasting notes but after the first third an enjoyable smooth cigar

Being a massive fan of the epicure 2 I decided to give the de luxe a try. I’m a bit sceptical about the lCDH line as it seems a bit hit n miss in my opinion. Nonetheless I gave it a try and wasn’t disappointed. Upon lighting I was met with flavour of slight pepper and cinnamon. The pepper died down almost immediately. The second third continued with the cinnamon met with some vanilla and honey in the background. Most of the final third continued that same profile. I did get hints of leather which tended to come and go. Burn was great and combustion also. Didn’t have to relight. My final thoughts are it’s a nice cigar and not too much in difference to the epicure 2 which makes you think what’s the point. But considering it has the same price point you could take your pick or take both and compare.

Nice enough, came in a flash sale with another two cigars. Good value for money but light ammonia taste in the second half so would have benefitted to longer curing stopped it getting 4 stars.

One of the best smokes I have had. Full of flavor and surprisingly very sweet. Went beautifully with some rum.
