Tried one this am,Lit and drew well,a lot of smoke even when not taking a toke.
Quickly got to the,in my opinion,an overlarge band for the size of this cigar,I carefully removed band but found the outer wrapper unwound quite a bit as I continued the smoke.
Smoke was reasonable but it seemed to burn in the centre more rather than a nice even ash burn leaving remnants of the unwinding outer wrapper which needed to be burnt off.
As can be expected from the above I was a tad disappointed hence the three stars

What an exquisite little cigar. Great burn, great draw and very good flavour. Paired very nicely with a coffee. Would highly recommend

Peppery, spicey and woody... I have to say not too bad for me. I did leave it sitting in the humidor for a while... The burn was even with a good smoke output. However, this is only the second one I’ve had but very enjoyable..

Wow what a smoke. I have only been smoking cigars for around 12 months. I ve have sampled a tried many of cuba’s finest over the last year and have fallen for Hoyo de Monterrey epicure no2 and cohiba robustos. I decided to try this Alec Bradley as it was listed on the site in the recommended or special list. I have to say this was a fantastic smoke. The build, draw and burn were sublime. Part of me is against writing this review as I want this rare undiscovered gem to remain a secret so I can fill my humidor come pay day but I can’t you need to try this cigar. I paired it with an un chillfiltered bottle of edradour and wow what a combo. I am regretting only buying one to sample now as it was over too quickly. Hands down one of the best value for money cigars I have had to date

Takes a few to discover the character of this flavourful, slow burner. Easily lasts a good television programme, even in the exciting bits re-lights are rare - and they burn easily. Its a soft pull. Quite strong, with lots of flavour, its a rawer affair than a Cohiba or a Romeo - but then what do you expect? To me they have been more consistent and dependable. So the value rating is high, as for the cost the outcome is good. Perhaps they need to be a little on the dryer side to offer their best?

Having read other reviews and the fact that the Inka Secret Blend is C-Gars own brand, I was looking forward to smoking this cigar.
I am not a fan of the Cello wrapper, pale and insipid, but thats a very personal observation. On the plus side, it drew well, burned evenly and produces plumes of smoke, but to me unpleasant flavour and aroma - nothing about this cigar would encourage me to smoke again or try other examples of the brand.
Sorry, as dont like to be critical of a Company that otherwise provides such excellent service. I appreciate this is an attempt to offer customers value but it smacks of a cheap cigar and whilst it would be unfair to describe as unpleasant, I think if most cigars were like this, I would give them up!
