Was really looking forward to this smoke looking at all the reviews but sadly that was not the case here.
Even before lighting this up you could feel the build quality was lose at both ends and in the middle it was like a rock.
Most of the way say 80% ( was smooth with plenty of smoke) the burn line was wavy and needed touching up a few times.
Removing the band easily but the wrapper underneath was not glued down at all.
I tried to smoke it further but the unravelling was just too much along with the spiciness.
I will get another and put it in my humidor for a few months to see if that makes any difference.

Quai d Orsay No. 52 Cigar - 1 Single
by Matthew
I was recommended this stick as a lover of mild Cubans. I have tried the 50 a couple of times but found it a little bland. This on the other hand was a real delight with buttery smooth cream, toasted nut and plenty of aromatics. There was a surprising amount of evolution over the 75 minutes it lasted and it paired beautifully with a reserve Gewurtztraminer I had recently picked up in France.

Really wanted to enjoy this as I love the No 52
But this was bad ( loved the idea ) of a small smoke, ideal for lunchtimes or on the go.
But was just bad, no real flavour, but even worse was the draw, extremely hard and difficult, which just took the pleasure out of it
Definitely won't be going back into my collection.

A very enjoyable smoke, easy draw. Every light though and not many different notes. Would definitely recommend to a new smoker or even to have in the daytime. But all in all nit bad at all, for the price point etc

Quintero Favoritos Cigar - 1 Single
by Andrew
I?m fairly new to cigars and struggle to identify some of the more subtle flavours however this was a wonderful smooth smoke that I thoroughly enjoyed.

The first 3rd of the cigar is quite gentle and nothing special but the 2nd and last 3rd's is when it gets better and all the flavour starts coming out. Definitely worth the money. Burn was nice and even, good draw and a good amount of smoke
