In my 20s and this was my first big cigar, having tried a couple cigarillos before.
On arrival I kept it at 70% humidity in a humidor bag for 2 weeks.
Quality:
Dark oily wrapper.
Really smooth smoke, white ash that never fell off.
Razor sharp burn until it got 2/3 done, when a bad wiggle appeared and it went out (ash related?), but was nearly ready to finish then anyway.
Lasted over an hour outside.
Flavour:
Nice rich tobacco flavours.
I think I could taste coffee/chocolate (yeah i'm new).
Definitely tasted leathery as it got to the halfway point down.
Drink with cognac and coke helped clear the occasional bite at back of throat.
Strength:
Could be a bit strong in nicotine for new people (like myself).
I had several meals before and shared this, and I still got a big nicotine rush for 5-10 mins. Although I didn't feel unwell at all.
Delivery:
Cgarsltd delivered in a bubble-wrap padded jiffy bag, with the cigar inside their own high quality custom card/plastic boxes to help prevent crushing damage.
Got some leaflets and a humidor bag.
These also came in their

Had about 6 of these now. All the others were perfect but this one was quite bitter and went out a couple of times too. However I would still maintain that this cigar is brilliant value for money and I will carry on buying for definite. If you are on a budget or are looking for an ever day puffing stick, you really should try a few of these.

Bit of a suprise this one, I ordered a single purely on impulse as part of a nice varied order that I have brought with me on a trip to Spain. My daily Cigar is a Davidoff 2000 which I obviously enjoy. However my first Skinny was a very pleasant suprise, a definite contender for the Davidoff 2000, very similar and much cheaper. I loved this singleton, I can honestly say that if they prove to be consistent in quality and taste Davidoff 2000's are in trouble. On the basis of my first encounter I would strongly recommend you try these

These have quickly become my go-to lunchtime cigar. Wonderfully smooth, thick smoke from every puff, razor sharp burn and perfect draw. The flavour is complex and creamy with hints of wood and spice throughout. An absolute bargain for such a quality smoke.
