Conquistador Toro Cigar - 1 Single
by Wayne
Smoked this on the day it arrived (my humidor had been empty for a couple of weeks) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Wrapper spit very slightly when I cut it but no issues until the last third and even then it was minor unwrapping. I probably cut a little too much off to be fair. Draw started slightly looser than I prefer but actually settled in really well. I don’t have the greatest palate but after the first few puffs this settled into a really smooth smoke with an even burn and what I think was a nice, peppery finish. I will definitely get a few of these to keep longer term. Really good cigar for the price.

Best value on the market these days. With the crazy prices of Cubans these days the appeal of cubanesques has never been higher. Solid construction, never had an issue with the draw or canoeing once in the over 100 of these I've smoked. I like the taste of them straight out if the box but they can benefit greatly from even just as little as a few days to a week in a humidor, reminds me a bit of some of the cheaper montecristos.
I feel like the 35 minute smoking time is underselling it. I'm a very fast smoker and I feel like 35mins is around what it takes me, I've gifted a couple to friends and it takes them longer.
For less than £8 a stick it's a bargain. It's the most bang for your buck you can get for a humidor filler. The BV line is a real hidden gem but the minis in particular. I admit I worry about them becoming more popular in case they realise just how good value these actually are.

Easy to light and an even burn. Really woody on the inhale, lots of strong oak. Slight coffee notes. As I get further into it, there's sweeter notes, treacle maybe hazelnut. Really good to have with coffee.

EGM Cigars Encanto - 1 Single
by Bradley
Another hit from EGM, Iv smoked loads of these across lounges as well as ones ordered online and I’m yet to get a less than perfect Encanto.
Id recommend ordering 2 so you can enjoy one and keep one in your humidor, I love the Lancero format and this is up there with the Cubans.

This AVO XO Legato Toro Cigar was very good nearly perfect construction only needed one touch with a lighter, draw was perfect, took me over one and a half hour to smoke it
Very nice and complex flavour cream wood sweet nutty . Finishes with leather and a bit darker wood

Phenomenal cigar, a perfect representation of how good Olivia is and the standards Mitchell expects.
Deep, dark chocolate, exceptionally toothy Mexican San Andres wrapper is a thing to behold, feels dry initially but leaves an oil slick on the fingers and palte.
Cut with a guillotine the draw is open and easy but has enough resistance producing huge amounts of thick, white smoke.
Nicaraguan filler and binder produce deep earthy and pepper flavours upfront followed by leather and bittersweet dark chocolate, finish is drying cacao, espresso coffee and lots of cedar and oak, it's nicely balanced however by the maduro wrapper that offers a background sweetness.
Burn is perfect with no corrections needed, strength is low; however, body ramps up significantly from medium low to full.
Exceptionally good value for money, especially as a twin pack.
