Punch Punch Tubed Cigar - 1 Single
by Leslie
I have been smoking for many years and have tried all the usual cigars, for once the description doesn't do it justice...
I enjoyed my Punch cigar in the lovely setting of the Churchill Cigar Lounge on the Cunard ship 'Victoria' and oh what a joy!!! One of the best cigars I have ever smoked. It lit easily, the draw was effortless, it burnt evenly and never went out even after being left for several minutes while I was ordering yet more drinks. There was no bitterness or aftertaste.. For me a great cigar and I will be ordering a box next time not just one...

I tried one of these not expecting much for a £9.49 cigar of its size. I didn't get much either. The wrapper was a bit flakey at one end but not enough to ruin anything. It drew well and the ash stacked up very well. Initially it was peppery with a floral, almost herbal edge which soon gave way to a woody leathery taste which got stronger towards the end. It lasted me just under an hour and a half. Overall, it was kinda mild. Not a bad smoke for the price but I won't get another. I'd rather pay an extra quid or two and get a smaller, better quality cigar.
While this wasn't an unpleasant smoke, it wasn't a particularly good one either, so I'm giving it 3/5. Try one if you like big cigars at low prices but if flavour is your thing, I wouldn't bother with this one. YMMV!

What a fantastic cigar - especially for such a low price tag!
Upon cutting it and testing the airflow I thought it may be heavy on the draw but that has not been the case when lit. Thick satisfying smoke and a rich strong flavour. It's quite reminiscent of the La Flor Dominicana in flavour and a very steady burn. So far I am 40 minutes in with a cup of tea and it's been a real pleasure.
Great service as well - I will return to this one again.

The tobacco is very nice and I was going to order some more tins but since May 2017 it has gone up by nearly £7 !!! So will give it a miss as it's not nice.

I love these little cigars!....there are better cigars out there but for a half corona that costs 8 quid, they are really very good!
It was the comments mentioning "creamy, smooth leather & hints of coffee and/or chocolate" that first made me prick up my ears and subsequently had this old dog wagging it's tail!
Lovely relaxing, trouble free smoke that's sure to last most a good 30-40 minutes depending on individual cadence. Do yourself a favour and pull the trigger on 2 or 3, chuck them in the humidor for a few weeks to settle and break one out at a suitable time of your choosing.
