Issue: Cigar Aficionado, Oct 01, 2016 - Score: 90. Rolled with a reddish, Colorado wrapper, this robusto has an easy draw and even burn. Rich notes of caramel and maple segue into pleasant chariness on the finish.

This is a good looking well made cigar. My pleasure ended though when I lit it up. Didn't like the bouquet or the taste. Reminded me a little of mild Dutch cigars. Compared to even a very modest Cuban cigar they are very disappointing. Won't be buying again

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.
