Test drove a couple of these over the festive period. First off take care when cutting the cap as it is small and seems fragile to me. The first one tore. Leaving that on one side I found this cigar to be quite enjoyable. Pleasing bouquet and flavour. Not quite as nice as budget Cuban cigars but enjoyable all the same. Taking price in to account and the fact that they are hand rolled you should give them a try. My only concern is build quality which seems variable.

Stalla Dhu Islay - 70cl 40%
by Staff
Wow what a find ! I picked this up in a little store in Chester having never heard of it before and being a high fan of Islay I thought, why not for about 35 quid give it whirl!
What I did not expect is this perfectly balanced subtly sensuously smoky whisky with a sweet spice and lingeringly lovely finish ! Now my go to Islay great deal

I had one of these at my brothers at Christmas and thought 'it was alright ' As I'm new to cigars I bought a couple for myself to try again and put them in a humi bag. As I was swapping cigars to my up and running humidor I thought I will just have another go and I love these little sticks. Dark chocolate, peppery/spice followed by mild leathery flavours and not harsh at all. It just proves to me that if a cigar is stored properly then you DO GET A BETTER FLAVOUR. Hit the spot for me, Thank You CGars.

Backwoods Purple Cigars - Pack of 5
by Nathan
I've tried many flavored cigar brands and these are by far the most sweetest. The honey & berry Backwoods are packed with flavor compared to their other varieties. Each draw leaves a sweet taste on the lips and maintains a consistent flavour throughout the burn. A smoke can last between 30-40 minutes and gives off a sweet tobacco pipe smell. Sometimes the draw is tough, but is easily overcome by giving the cigar an alround squeeze before lighting. Lastly, the old western look to these cigars make them extra special.

I first smoked this cigar at the Cuban festival some 5 years ago and brought back some boxes with me.While in Cuba I met David Savona (Cigar aficionado) who asked my opinion of it and I told him 'first class' He smiled and said he would check it out. It rated a 94 in later editions ! (No, he did not hire me !!)I am surprised that these are still around so pick some up at a very reasonable rate from C.Gars. Limited editions like this sometimes slip under the radar so don't miss out !!

I love the presentation of this new Inka or Inca as the name said, this brand is the USA version and Its nice to see them in the UK.
The wrapper of this cigar is very oily and well wrapped.
Same size as a Inka red or blue robusto, 4 7/8 x 50.
The has a very sweet and nutty scent.
At the beginning this cigars tastes exactly how it smells, lots of roasted nuts flavour and floral sweetness.
The cigar develops further and evolves into a lot of sweet notes in the smoke of vanilla and a tiny hint of white pepper on the palate.
The cigar finishes with a touch of spice on the palate with the creamy sweetness of the smoke.
The draw was perfect from the beginning onward but the ash dropped just outside of the ashtray on the second part T.T
This is great value and a great mild to medium strength cigar for 45 minutes of enjoyment.
Perfect with a sweet expresso, Havana Club Maestros rum or Stalla Dhu Speyside whisky.
Exclusive for Turmeaus. Just 5000 sticks available!!!. – David. Turmeaus Est. 1817 Cigars and Whisky Liverpool.
