It’s been a while since I smoked anything by ERdM, the last being probably ten years ago, and that would have been a smaller vitola, I can’t remember what it was but at a guess it was 42 ring around 4” long. I remember this because I bought two from an aged batch from the late 90s and I kept them a while before I smoked them. They made quite an impression on me.
So it was with great anticipation I lit the Choix Supreme up this evening, on what has been an exceptionally still, hot and humid July day. A couple of lamb steaks were marinating ready for the bbq and I sat down with a Havana Club Des Maestros as a chaser and an ice cold craft IPA as a quencher. I’ve always admired the construction of these cigars, as they are relatively inexpensive and seem to have a boldness to them with beautifully veined dark brown wrappers and almost surgically constructed caps. After punching it with my new 13mm Adorini punch (highly recommended for larger the gauges), the pre-lit draw was firm, but free. Leather and wood were evident before I took a flame to it, with maybe a hint of chocolate or

Ive had this humidor for about six months, and it works really well. Most importantly, it maintains a nice stable humidity level, with relatively infrequent topping up and adjustment. The included hygrometer is quite accurate: just 1% different from a digital test. Humidity throughout the different parts of the unit is quite uniform. The appearance is great, construction looks precise and feels solid, the interior smells lovely, and cigars come out in very nice smoking condition. Plus Cgars was great to do business with: they sent this model to one of their physical stores so I could check it out before purchase. Im a very happy customer.

After reading other reviews I was very carefull with this stogie.
Still after 2 minutes the wraper began to flake and unfold.
The burn became uneven several times aftr 20 minutes.
That said it had a good draw and pleasant flavour, I might buy again on those grounds and the low price

Favourite cigar to date. Im not very experienced but what I found was it was very creamy all the way through. I was surprised when into the 2/3 i started to get abit of spice which I really enjoyed. In the last 3rd there was strong caramel/ honey notes which I have never tasted before. 100% buying more

Honestly. I was gutted when it died. Banging smoke. Want more now. Smoked with red wine,went perfectly together. No burn issues at all,flavours didnt change once but they were so good they didnt need to.
Very surprised how good it was.

Purchased as part of the Cuban Sampler pack at £99. Normally Im a Cohiba smoker but thought it would be good to try something different and maybe get a saving at the same time. Well im through to the 5th Cigar already and its this one above. I use a accurate straight cut and found the cap came off cleanly, and the draw before lighting was excellent! A little acidic to start but it mellowed as the smoke went on, the burn was nice and even too. Its a fairly dark leaf and that came out in the flavour too, quite spicy but not too heavy. I smoked about two thirds in 30 minutes so quite good for me. I rarely take any cigar further. If I gave the Cohina Siglo II 9/10 this would come in at 8 so very pleased theres a lesser expensive alternative.
