Wow, what a smoke. I'm new to cigars so I don't have much to benchmark against but this was the cigar that peaked my interest. It was a very smooth smoke throughout, nice woody and leathery flavours blending into light and sweet spice further down. I found the flavour profile quite complex which kept me interested throughout. Took about an hour to smoke. Will definitely have again.

I must have had a bad roll with my first experience of charatan. After cutting, three large cracks appeared that ran up the length of the cigar to the band. The wrapper also started peeling off even though it had not been cut above the cap. The draw on the cigar was very poor and the flavour very one dimensional, most probably due to the damage. It did appear to be very tightly wrapped and the cracks almost "pinged" open after cutting. Would not buy again after this experience.

As rather a beginner, this for me was a brilliant budget cigar - the first low end cigar that provides a really substantial and satisfying smoke.
Well structured with a good even draw and burn. Good rich flavours to relish, and moist freshness. Smokes for 30 minutes or so and gives a real sense of fulfilling satisfaction by the end, and a slight narcotic tranquility.
For me high prices take the fun out of smoking, so a low cost epic like this suits me to the ground.

I can't quite believe how excellent this cutter is, super easy and quick to use, never had any loose tobacco after using it and provides a perfect draw (for me). Only down side is the way the cutter clips back into it's self, it seems to wear out rather quickly, however for the price and excellent job.

Earlier this year my review of this cigar was not favourable due to it being plugged. The replacement was so different I felt a new review was in order. This example was extremely well behaved and didn't go out once. I take back what I said about the lack of flavour - this one was a very nice smoke with plenty of Cuban must and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would now consider buying more of these in the future.
