Cuaba Divinos Cigar - 1 Single
by Chris
I understand these are made by R&J so I was somewhat disappointed with the construction. A rather tight draw coupled with the wrapper coming loose after lighting didn't impress.
Although having to constantly touch up to stop it from tunnelling this was quite a nice cigar but because of the above mentioned problems I can't rate it above it's Oliva equivalent nor my two favourite cigars of the moment, namely the Inka Red Tres Petit Corona or the Bolivar Corona Junior.

I have to agree with the last review that whilst these look good they are far too harsh for me !
Smoked about the first third before I had to admit defeat. The one that I tried had a VERY strong flavour and was very harsh indeed.
Certainly not one for me and if the one that i had was indicative of them then be warned and only get these if you like a very harsh cigar.

I tried one of the Inka Secret Blend Robusto Cigars and loved it. If you know you can control yourself then a box of 10 is great value for money your saving about £5 overall. I have found however that sometimes the burn is uneven but that could be partly because I'm a novice at lighting it. Very happy with my purchase.

I feel bad for giving this cigar only two stars as I looks so nice, unfortunately it did not live up to its appearance. Can't fault it for burn and construction, it was excellent there. I didn't at any point feel like I was smoking a maduro which kind of defeats the object. The taste was not unpleasant but pretty bland and considering it lasted over an hour it got extremely tedious. If this cigar was priced similarly to the chinchalero fuerte maduro i would consider buying more but it is considerably more expensive. Not very cheap for a budget smoke. If they bring out maduro versions of smaller cigars in the range I will definitely give them a go but this is too big and expensive for such an uninteresting smoke. A half corona size maduro would probably be a better experience. Short enough to not get boring and cheap enough to compete with other budget cigars.

I Picked up one of these from my local shop just to try one but left it in my humidor for about a month before smoking it yesterday, and I have to say it was one of, if not the best cigar I've had to date.
Pretty much everything was there that I like in a cigar:
- Medium/Firm draw
- Light to Medium flavour
- Burnt perfectly even without having to adjust
- Cigar itself felt firm in your hand
- lasted about 45 mins
- Under £10 (Bonus points)
I appreciate those features may not be for everyone but if you're a fan of the above then I couldn't recommend it more.

Disappointed to say the least! It took so much nursing keep it burning evenly, I even cut it half to give it another chance but gave up and had a Regius instead! No spiciness for me just hints of frustration with a strong undertone of annoyance!
