Just had my first one of these and very impressed. Spent the morning at the cinema and then came home, Wife has gone to the in-laws and my daughter occupied with her friends so yes an ideal time for a bit of Sunday relaxation on the garden swing seat with a nice cigar and coffee. I brewed a fresh Vietnam coffee which I made sweet latte style which really did go well with this cigar. The cigar looked great, nice smooth brown wrapper. The cigar toasted up and the journey began, nice consistent smooth flavour which remained throughout the cigar. The notes /flavours didn't really change. It did get slightly bitter right at the end but this was not unpleasant. The smoke was 30 minutes and perfect for when you have a small bit of time but don't want to rush a Robusto (which is my favourite) Im defiantly purchasing a few more of these for my Humidor, at less than £4 you cant go wrong with stocking a few!! Hope you enjoy as much as I did.

King Edward Imperial Cigars - Pack of 5
by Jonathan
I am new to cigars and I haven't smoked many my favourite so far would have to be the Cuban cigars. But this rare beauty my god so smooth so tastefull very sweet and citreous on my pallet a nice smoke even burn and just delicious to enjoy. I hadn't actually heard of King Edwards until my father mentioned that's what he used to smoke back in his golden days so I was curious to see my fathers choice and all I can say is I will be ordering more than 1 pack at a time next time highly recommended goes great with a nice cup of coffee

After finally finishing this 5 cigar sampler, I decided that it was more than worthy of a little review to encourage you to take the plunge and purchase this selection of fine Petite Corona cigars….
The Petite Corona Full Flavour Sampler delivers exactly as it describes. All cigars are of medium body with some having a hint of fuller flavour. Each of the cigars have their own organoleptics (taste, texture, colour and flavour etc.). This adds to the variety of this selection.
Personally, I enjoyed each cigar and each cigar was different to the rest. All had a fantastic draw and good burn. I would say a word of note that the Vegas Robaina Familiares does need to be managed from the beginning to maintain an even burn and avoid too much heat into the last third.
As with every sampler, the enjoyment should come from trying them. The Cohiba is of course a stunner but the real winner out of the five for me was the Bolivar Petite Corona. A real gem of a cigar. Earthy peaty flavours, with a sweetness left on the lips with great depth. Fantastic draw and even burn. The ash lasted 2 th

Lovely smoke, smooth. It easily rivals the Cubans and I will be buying another.

I treated myself to the Ramon Allones Sampler - I have smoked cigars before, although would certainly not consider myself a connisseur. I was banished to the garden by the missus, although it was a thoroughly pleasant evening. A large glass of Tobermory came with me, as did a couple of candles stuffed into some beer bottles by way of illumination.
I now thoroughly understand the joys of sitting by oneself and unwinding with a cigar. I now feel as though I have had a massage or a long hot bath; thoroughly relaxed.
The cigar itself lit perfectly (I was a little apprehensive as I have torched the side of a cigar before) and drew brilliantly. The burn was more or less even, although I can probably contribute the slight uneven-ness to the breeze. The cigar was perfectly rescuable after leaving while I went back into the house to get a top-up midway through; a few puffs and it was buisness as usual. I cannot wait to try the other two from the sampler, and I will certainly add this cigar onto my favourates list.
It tasted great right down to the point where I felt the warm glow on

If you can get a well made one these would be pretty good. For the price these have a very nice taste. The construction however is terrible. The first one I had, the wrapper peeled off before I even cut the cap off. Second one was OK, but the third peeled away again after I cut the cap off. I'm talking about the whole wrapper, had to bin the first one, but saved the next one as I prefer to leave the wrapper on.
These are a nice mellow smoke, if they could keep their quality under control these would my ideal everyday smoke. Does not seem restricted to this model, I also got the sampler set, one has the wrapper peeling off and another has a tear 1cm from the head 😠
