Partagas Shorts Cigar - 1 Single
by Karl
A consistent even smoke and draw on this cigar. Blue grey smoke and solid ash. The strength definitely increased as the cigar smoked. It was very mild at the beginning but certainly picked up towards the end. Slightly shorter smoke but not to quick. Only the second one of these that I have had and certainly impressed more than the first time, perhaps from several months resting in my humidor. I shall have to explore the Partagas range further. Classy red and gold band. Karl.

by Michael
Not recommended. Kept going out. No flavour. Seemed poor quality.

Jose L Piedra Conservas Cigar - 1 Single
by Jennifer
I have to disagree strongly with a lot of the reviews here. Those who say this is a tasteless or bland cigar must prefer the stronger Cubans or maybe darker/(richer) tobacco. I personally love these. They deliver a mild grassy flavour at first but by a third of the way through it starts to develop into a lovely medium, creamy, nutty and earthy flavour that continues right to the nub. These are also the perfect size if you're like me and prefer a strong cigar in a smaller package like a petit corona to corona vitola. The wrappers on these are rather scruffy but not too bad. You get what you pay for and they're certainly a contender for other similarly priced cigars. A great humidor filler and 50min to 1.15 hour smoke!

Awful cigar, overpriced by about £4, very very bitter taste, do yourself a favour and buy something like an Oliva serie g for double the price,

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

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!!!
