Chinchalero Novillo Cigar - 1 Single
by Christopher`
A good little cigar and worth keeping a few in the humidor. Nicely made and feels good in the hand the burn is very even throughout. Quite a lot of smoke, which is always good, and a good spicy flavour, not strong but not weak. Smokable down to near the band and just right for when you have half an hour or so and would waste a robusto.
Again I'm impressed by this brand and happy to keep a few of these for a reliable everyday smoke

Xikar Crystal Clear Jar Humidifier - Small - 2oz (End of Line)
by Christopher`
Absolutely superb! I got one two months ago and simply popped it in the humidor and that was that. No messing around and perfectly humidified cigars. When I think of all the times over the years I messed up with the old humidifier and how that affected the flavour of my cigars I am converted to this product.
A great innovation that works - cigars in perfect condition every time!

Charatan Original Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Christopher`
Definitely one of my favourite non-Cubans but the first time I've bought from CGars and not disappointed!
A well made cigar nicely rolled and well constructed. Full of flavour, lots of leather and wood, which lasts up to the last inch and a half or so. A very even burn and considering it takes over an hour to smoke no need to relight or mess around just lit and smoked. Lots of fragrant smoke and just a really nice cigar to smoke over a few mid afternoon coffees.
A good cigar to have in the humidor and I'll certainly continue keeping mine stocked up with a few!

Oliva Serie G Maduro Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Christopher`
A pretty good and tastey cigar. Very well made and a good even burn, not masses of smoke but a good draw. Quite well balanced flavours, leather and spice, and very even throughout the whole smoke with absolutely no biitterness.
Good - not great - but definitely one to have in the humidor and one I would recommend to a friend for a reasonably priced smoke

I received one of these as a gift and was pretty disappointed.
I was keen to try some non-Cubans and this seemed to fit the bill.
Construction was pretty average with a fairly loose draw. Flavour was okay, a bit bland but not offensive. It took a lot of maintenance to keep it going with re-lighting required if you did not keep drawing very quickly.
In summary, a distinctly below average smoke which I would not purchase again.

Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Christopher`
A superb cigar! A very well constructed cigar with a good even draw. The burn was very even with lots of smoke right down to the last inch.
The flavour, strong but never overpowering with lots of rich leather and spice and never became bitter. Genuinely a quality cigar and this one easily goes on my list of great smokes!
