Montecristo No. 2 Cigar - Box of 10
by Andrew
Montecristo No.2 is perhaps the finest cigar available a true classic. I often buy a box when funds allow and always have some aging in the humidor. An aged Montecristo No. 2 is a real treat, its a giant in stature and quality. Its a complex cigar with full bodied strength, subtlety, and complexity. It has notes of strong coffee with spicey cinnamon, nutmeg, almond, cream, leather and coconut. I wish I could smoke these every day but given the price, theyre a special occasion smoke and a real treat.

Ordered two last week and gave the first one a try today. Used a punch.
Smooth coffee and dark chocolate flavour and then toasty nuts in the first half and very mild. An initially even burn ended when the very thin wrapper split halfway down and the burn line went a little wavy. This did make it awkward to get a good draw. The flavour transitioned towards an increasing pepperiness, lost much of its sweetness and moved towards more of a bitter, liquorice type taste.
Never overpowering. Great for the price. Pleasant post lunch smoke and would give it a higher mark if it weren’t for the wrapper split issue.

Mitchellero Sporty Cigar - 1 Single
by Barry
Just attempted to smoke this cigar having cut & Lit the draw was one of the Tightest ever experienced. Then it started to unravel from the foot, totally UnSmokable, now I know it’s a very cheap cigar but you would still expect to get a smoke from it.

First Id like to thank the fantastic unbeatable customer service and the team including Hayley, Jess & Mitchell. When I ordered 5 of these sticks a fair few came damaged, one that I smoked I really didnt like. Now that Ive tucked into a second stick all I can say is...wow!
I gave these sticks a bad rap at first, but I suspect the first one I smoked was a runt of the little so to speak. Anyway, onto the review.
Burn is solid , almost razor Sharp.
Ash is pure white, absolutely no grey or black mottling, a sign of good well drained soil when growing the leaf itself, and a good cure.
This cigar was rolled beautifully, cap was done perfectly, nice clean cut . Beautiful open draw.
The taste at first light is the CLASSIC mineral rich sweet earth that comes with a good Nicaraguan cigar, very clean and crisp with no bitterness on the finish, VERY much like davidoff cigars, a similar clean profile.
As the stick developes the beautiful mineral rich sweet earthy Nicaraguan notes stay consistent and leather become more and more apparent, later developing some lovely Caramel not
