Backwoods Purple Cigars - Pack of 5
by Nathan
I've tried many flavored cigar brands and these are by far the most sweetest. The honey & berry Backwoods are packed with flavor compared to their other varieties. Each draw leaves a sweet taste on the lips and maintains a consistent flavour throughout the burn. A smoke can last between 30-40 minutes and gives off a sweet tobacco pipe smell. Sometimes the draw is tough, but is easily overcome by giving the cigar an alround squeeze before lighting. Lastly, the old western look to these cigars make them extra special.

I love the presentation of this new Inka or Inca as the name said, this brand is the USA version and Its nice to see them in the UK.
The wrapper of this cigar is very oily and well wrapped.
Same size as a Inka red or blue robusto, 4 7/8 x 50.
The has a very sweet and nutty scent.
At the beginning this cigars tastes exactly how it smells, lots of roasted nuts flavour and floral sweetness.
The cigar develops further and evolves into a lot of sweet notes in the smoke of vanilla and a tiny hint of white pepper on the palate.
The cigar finishes with a touch of spice on the palate with the creamy sweetness of the smoke.
The draw was perfect from the beginning onward but the ash dropped just outside of the ashtray on the second part T.T
This is great value and a great mild to medium strength cigar for 45 minutes of enjoyment.
Perfect with a sweet expresso, Havana Club Maestros rum or Stalla Dhu Speyside whisky.
Exclusive for Turmeaus. Just 5000 sticks available!!!. – David. Turmeaus Est. 1817 Cigars and Whisky Liverpool.

This is a most useful attachment for the large 'walk in size' Cigar Oasis humidor. Once set up (a bit fiddly but easy enough) you can completely monitor your cigars from anywhere just by looking at your mobile phone appt. I have found the unit to be very accurate and it certainly saves having to check water levels as you can simply look to see if more water is required.
I have found that there is a slight downside as if your Wi-Fi gets disconnected then the unit does not 'pick up from where you left off' and you have to input all the details of your internet connection again which while being simple, can be a hassle if this happens a few times per week.
Other than this , the unit is very useful and a worthwhile addition as, if you have spent a great deal on a large humidification unit and cigars then the cost of this very useful module is very worthwhile .

Really nice short robusto. Smoked beautifully and I enjoyed the strength and toastiness of this well made cigar. The smoking experience was curtailed unfortunately by the wrapper flaking a mid ships. The wrapper is thin and of fine quality giving a lovely burn but perhaps the cigar had dried a little at some point. It was a shame as I was really enjoying it. A lovely smoke though.

Quorum Classic Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Stephen
Another great cigar from Quorum! Construction and burn were flawless. Great aromas. The wrapper was a wee bit flaky in one area, as though it has dried at some point...I've had this before with Quorum cigars, luckily it didn't diminish the smoking experience. The wrapper was thin and gave a feeling of quality and an even burn. Ash held very well. Tastes were toasted bread, toasted nuts. Plumes of smoke. I'm very impressed with this manufacturer though...indeed there are some very good cigars coming out of Nicaragua. Can't fault it at this price.

This was the first ever 'flavoured' cigar that I had ever tried. The packet, wrappers and the cigar itself smelled like a very lovely cherry and there was a pleasing cherry flavour on the mouthpart of the cigar.
The flavour was not really reminiscent of cherry, I'm not sure to what extent a flavoured cigar should taste like it's flavouring - but there was certainly little to no of the cherry smell from the wrapper in the smoke of any of the cigars. Did I get a dud pack or is this normal? I've no idea;
But, the cigar itself was quite nice and very well constructed.
It'd be great if C.Gars LTD got the La Aurora Principe's, the regular size, rather than the chicos - however!
