Cohiba Siglo II Tubed Cigar - Pack of 3
by Stuart
Being new to cigar smoking I decided on the Siglo II for my introduction. I found the first third to be quite mild and very smooth and creamy. The second third the flavour really started to come through with a cedar wood and leather flavour. The third third I found very strong with a pepper and spice flavour that left a lovely aftertaste on the tongue. All in all a very enjoyable smoke that lasted me just over an hour. I will be purchasing some more I think.

Was looking for something new and interesting to try and came across this brilliant stick. On the initial light there was an instant taste of sweet, sweet chocolate and an intoxicating aroma of rich tobacco from the smoke (which was thick and plentiful, just the way I like it). Flavors came and went for the next 35 minutes, including spicy ceder notes and even a bit of marzipan. On top of that, she crackles like a bonfire, and glows just as bright to boot! These sticks come pre-cut and ready to smoke, very useful when you find yourself without a cutter, but in need of a cigar.

Great start, creamy, nutty and sweet with that distinct Nicaraguan taste. Half way it got bitter, the draw was very loose and I think it caused the cigar to burn too hot. I bit down on the head to restrict the airflow which helped keep the flavour. It was pleasant but nothing really special. Would I buy another? No, for me non Cubans are always missing that tangy cuban taste, and without it, a cigar just doesn't satisfy me the same way. For £12/13 you can get diplomaticos and bolivar lonsdales, bolivar Royal corona, Ramon specially selected, Trinidad coloniales, Vegas robaina familiares, the list goes on... So to summarise, nice, but not nice enough to choose it over Cubans in the same price range. If you are bored of Cubans and want something different, it's worth a try.

Great tasting cigar, burns well etc. A certain hit amongst myself and friends.

El Rey del Mundo Demi Tasse Cigar - 1 Single
by alexandru
Just tried this tonight. It's a 10-15 mins smoke but I usually like to chill so I got about 40 mins out of it. Surprisingly even burn and taste for such a small cigar. Draw is fine but gets a bit tight at the end. It would be a pleasant smoke overall, however I like milder ones. I found this to be a bit too plain. Peppery and woody all the way. Some leather hints. The last inch+ became a bit harsh doe to size. Good value for the price though not my cup of tea. It's worth a shot.

So far these have been the most consistent cigar i've smoked (although the last one was a little lively).
They burn really well, smell amazing, and produce plenty of lovely thick smoke. The flavour has a lovely earthy roundness to it, with that lovely hint of chocolate you can get with cubans.
I'm going to experiment with more RA's but i'm thinking i might always make sure a handfull of these reliable sticks are sat in my humidor.
