Trinidad Vigia Cigar - 1 Single
by thomas
What else can I say, this is a very special cigar. Lovely on a summers evening. Holds a good tooth and is beautifully wrapped. A pleasant draw not to light or too tightly packed. The outer wrapper is smooth and a real attractive colour. I did get a slightly uneven burn in the first 1/3rd but a little work with the lighter sorted that out for the rest of the burn. I brought this 6 months ago for £17, and it has been worth the wait. I would definitely add this to my top 10.

Late Friday, long week at work, nice fire in the field and Glastonbury playing I'm the back ground on the day we left Europe! In celebration I could think of nothing better to try from the humidor that a R&J Churchill... First up, this is a substantial cigar, and I mean substantial. I have smoked short Churchills for a long time, but size wise this is a big step up. Flawless construction. As soon as I started to toast the foot I knew it was going to be good, and boy o boy was I right. Draw is perfect, smoke initially cold, smooth and so creamy. Burn is flawless all the way down. This cigar slowly warms up, and as it does it gets slowly stronger, but, it never looses the smooth creaminess, it just gains power, beautifully controlled power. An absolutely awesome smoke, the best R&J I've had by a mile. Up there with the Cohiba piramides and Ramon Allones specially selected at the moment. some more of these will definatley be in the humidor soon!

I usually enjoy a smoke in the garden and on this warm sunny day decided to give the Inka Blue a try. It appeared to be of solid construction and lit evenly. The smoke had a pleasant aroma as confirmed by my wife and mother who were sitting nearby. The draw was good and the cigar burned evenly to the end. The smoke was cool carrying with it delicious flavours which continued right to the last. No bitterness experienced at all. It took an hour to smoke and given the pleasing aroma and delicious taste I found it to be great value for money.

Chinchalero Novillo Cigar - 1 Single
by mohammed
There have been some slightly negative reviews about this cigar so was a little hesitate about it, However, after smoking it i instantly enjoyed the smoke. it was very mild and smooth which i personally like. you can smoke this all day long and not be affected by the smoke but the taste and pleasures were there. i could not get enough of it and will be purchasing more. plus i like the alpha male look of the cigar which has a large ring gauge :)

H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by mohammed
this was my first cigar i have ever smoked. at first it was a little full bodies for me but after a few more draws i notice it was given me show much pleasure. the taste, the aromas and complete relaxed feeling. i was starting to really enjoy it. it lasted a awful a lot of time for me (30 mins) and so had to stop and save it for later. even the next day it was a nice smoke but not as good as the firs time. highly recommended (smoking time 20-30 mins).

Henri Wintermans Half Corona - Pack of 5 cigars
by mohammed
I am a beginner cigar smoker and my first cigar was H. Uppman (U.H) Cuban cigar which was very pleasant and enjoyable cigar......highly recommended for a beginner smoker. However, when you compare the HW Half coronas with H.U Cigars they are really are not nice. I found it was very harsh on the back of the throat and had to clear my throat a few times the next day. There are not bad but i would suggest for the similar style cigars try the cuban like the Montecristo and Romeo Y Juliet it would be much better tasting but will set you back in similar price.
