Montecristo Especial No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single by Scott

Ive never smoked this Vitola before but i am back to back testing the Especiales No.2 with cohiba's version on the Especiales.. So far this stick is lovely in the hand. I am a fan of big ring gauges but feel sometimes they can be a bit "bull in a china shop". This is lovely and delicate, a gentleman's smoke if you will... in the hand it feels sophisticated. I am surprised at the huge plooooombs its giving off amd the intense typical monte flavour which seems to be sweeter and more intense than any other Monte i have smoked to date. This is a lovely cigar. The aroma takes over and its quite simply the best Monte for flavour i have had. Def recommend for am evening smoke in the shed, as opposed to the windy park. And i cant wait to try cohibas version if this is anything to go by! 9/10

Quorum Shade Grown Tres Petite Corona Cigar - 1 Single by Oliver

Very nice light and mild cigar. Even burn, perfect draw when a punch is used, quite a oaky smell and taste with very small hints of coffee. Held the ash well but got very hot and bitter towards the end. Can't go wrong for a fiver!!!

Villiger Premium No. 7 Sumatra Cigar - Pack of 5 by Oliver

A good everyday pack of cigars to carry in your pocket. They come wrapped individually in foil and v-cut, medium strength, very smooth compared to the exports. Will be buying more.

Montecristo Double Edmundo Cigar - 1 Single by Phil

Recently had my 2nd Double Edmundo (felt i rushed the first one approx 6 months ago so was keen to have another go). I have to say that it didn't live up to expectation! I found it to be quite a tight roll and therefore the draw was quite hard, also it didn't burn evenly. I felt i had to keep drawing it quite hard too just to keep the thing lit. I persevered for a while but approx 2/3 in i decided to get the cutter on it & start again. This final 3rd was much different and while we were at the business end, it was more enjoyable. The cigar itself was more plyable as i'd been holding it around this point originally. I'm not sure if the difference was just the fact the roll wasn't as tight?! While i appreciate not every cigar will be perfect, i don't think i will be purchasing another one of these. Had a couple of goes now & there is so much more to try on the market

Guantanamera Puritos Cigar - 1 Single by Peter

Nice little cigar. I've ordered these a few times and they make a fantastic 20 minute smoke for when time is short. Quite a smooth smoke with a peppery finish. I did however have one which went super bitter mid way. Could of been a bad stick, what do you want at under £2 per cigar. Will definitely be purchasing again

Cuaba Divinos Cigar - 1 Single by Simon

I ordered this as part of a CGars sampler and it was lovely little cigar, that surprised me completely. My first impressions, were of a draw slightly too tight for my liking, however this was accompanied by such a rich and sweet aroma, a full creamy smoke and a very pleasant spicy, nutty sweetness. The draw opened up a little to become more acceptable a little way in to the smoke, making this a cigar that was hard to put down. What I initially thought was going to be a bit of a chore, became the first cigar I have ever smoked until I burnt my fingers! Overall, it is a charming and unusual cigar, with a quaint and old fashioned look and feel to it, but as far as flavour is concerned, I would rate it very highly. I will be ordering more and as the description says, it leaves you wanting more.
