My Father Blue Robusto Cigar - 1 Single by Jacob

I would say this was my first proper cigar. I’ve smoked cigars before but always after too many drinks and always with no knowledge of what I’m smoking. This cigar I smoked in the late afternoon on a driech Scottish day. Paired with a glass of Leffe Blonde and a dram of 14 yr old Jura. On the dry inhale it had a woodland autumnal taste, perhaps a bit of old leather bound books. The first third was mellow, milk chocolate, flat white coffee. I loved it. The whisky tasted better, smoother, the sweetness of the bourbon cask really coming through. The second and final thirds progressed through a deeper coffee and darker chocolate flavour but never too bitter. I think the Leffe and Jura helped here. The retrohales were warm gentle spice throughout. It was marvellous, I'm going to buy another. I’ve not smoked anything to compare it to but that’s a high bar. No issues with how it burned or smoked. Thank you to My Father and the people who made this cigar. What a great introduction to cigar smoking.

Montecristo No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single by Tomasz

This is a very good cigar, very smooth with nearly perfect construction. Draw was a bit tight. It has very nice flavours cedar, almonds, sweet cream and a bit of salt. It then gets more earthy with cacao to finish sweet. It's quite strong. I really liked it the only downside to it is the price way to expensive. I rate it 9/10. But I also had cheaper and as good cigars

Matilde Quadrata Torpedo Cigar - 1 Single (Discontinued) by iain

I knew as soon as I got this out the humidor I was in trouble. Never felt a cigar so much like a sponge! Lit it up and within about 5 draws it started to tunnel. I decided to cut a few inches off the foot of the cigar and light it again and within a few minutes it started to tunnel again put it straight in the ashtray. First badly constructed cigar I've had in about 5 years so my luck had to run out sometime! Hopefully the robusto I got in the sampler performs better.

Mitchellero Corona Cigar - 1 Single by Alex

Disappointing I must admit. When I tried this cigar I had high hopes but the overwhelming taste of ash and strong smell of tobacco (like cigarettes) ruined this for me.

Mitchellero Torcedor Cigar - 1 Single by Barry

Exceptionally good value for money. Excellent construction, perfect draw from the last 6 I've had, decent amount of dense, white smoke, zero corrections needed from both a V or guillotine cut. Flavour profile is fairly simple but satisfying, initially fairly sweet with a touch of chocolate and nut, finish is slightly earthy and quite spicy with black and white pepper. Good winter smoke due to relatively short smoke time in comparison to a robusto.
