Puffin Cigars - Skinny - 1 Single by James

Good mild stick. Reasonably well made. I did get some canoeing if the ash but it burnt evenly throughout. Pleasant smoke from start to finish. I will be trying the other sizes to get a batch for the humidor.

Plasencia Alma Del Campo Tribu Cigar - 1 Single by Barry

Great looking cigar, nice oily, mocha coloured wrapper, good looking, unfussy bands, superb construction. Cut with a guillotine, draw was light but not overly airy, absolutely phenomenal amounts of thick, cool white smoke, absolutely razor sharp burn, no corrections needed. Classic Nicaraguan powerhouse, medium/full body, definitely more towards the full spectrum, also substantial strength especially during the final third. Very smooth and creamy, lots of espresso crema alongside dark chocolate, shifts to nutty, earthy leather alongside more dark chocolate, finish has a sweet spice note...similar to tonka bean, no pepper which was surprising. Well worth trying.

Perdomo 10th Anniversary Connecticut Super Toro Cigar - 1 Single by Lewis

Lovely flavour, touched up once, but given the size and weather conditions, it was to be expected. Overall a very enjoyable experience, and roughly a 2hr smoke

Plasencia Reserva Original Piramide Cigar - 1 Single by Stuart

I generally rate Plasencias, they are enjoyable and smooth with a good draw. However, in my most recent stick I found a huge chunk of midrib that should never have made it into the cigar. It restricted the draw and made for harsh, bitter flavours. Fault can't be ascribed to Cgars here, but nonetheless, it was a waste of £24.

PDR AF Gran Reserva Maduro Purito Cigar - Tin of 6 by Barry

Most definitely not a 15 minute smoke, really well packed, perfect draw, perfect construction...easily 30 minutes. Small ring gauge so a guillotine cut, excellent smoke output, nice and thick and brilliant white, quite an easy draw but not overly airy. Solid medium/strong body and medium/strong strength too, has a noticeable throat and upper chest nicotine hit; however, its smooth and somewhat creamy. Lots of leather and cedar upfront followed by creamy coffee and roasted nut, finish is bittersweet dark chocolate alongside dry coffee, has a nice underlying sweetness. Really good value for money, good construction, good flavours.

Plasencia Reserva Original Robusto Cigar - 1 Single by Chris

Smoked my first one of these today in the City shop based on teams recommendation for a nice quick smoke. As other have said the construction was superb with a really smooth draw. I found the first 5 minutes a little harsh but the cigar got better the more I smoked it, overall really enjoyed it. Definitely a solid quick option at this price point
