Chinchalero Picadillos Cigar - 1 Single
by Richard
I enjoyed this cigar very much. I am very new to cigars but after trying some smaller cigarillos first I found this to be far superiour and quite mild which I enjoyed. It lasted a good amount of time for me as I don't often have alot of free time to enjoy but it wasn't over too quickly. I'd certainly recommend it for the price. What to try next is my only problem!

Partagas Shorts Cigar - 1 Single

I like strong flavoured cigars, & I absolutely loved this little fella! A full-on powerful smoke from start to the 40 minute finish, fantastic!

This cigar wasn't quite my cup of tea - but that's just personal preference. I found it to be grassy at the start, then it developed some liquorice flavours through the mid-section, before finishing with a slightly disappointing earthiness. Unfortunately, liquorice doesn't rank amongst those flavours which I like, but I suppose plenty do. The construction was excellent - clean and even burn, plenty of smoke and a solid ash. For the price, if you like the flavour profile, you really can't go wrong.

Easy draw, medium to strong flavours of spice, herbs and peanuts. Mild smoke. Lasted well. A good smoke.

Bought a 3 pack of these H.Upmann Cigars - Now I smoke nothing else!!
The light flavours and textures definetly suit my personal tastes, great construction and an even burn with matches makes these baby's easy to smoke and enjoy!
I've tried Churchills, Cohiba's and Punch cigars but as of a few weeks past I decided to make these my only purchase from now on - just the ideal length and ring size, a manly looking cigar but one that won't pete you out like a super Habano.
Weather your new to cigars or just want something different, lighter in texture than a hard smoke maybe? - these H.Up mann's are a real treat.
Can't wait to order more in the future, this box of 10 are on the top of my wish list.

Cohiba Behike BHK 52 Cigar - 1 Single

A cigar that every aficionado, and at least everyone who enjoys cigars should try and judge for themselves. Okay, the presentation is perfection in a cigar, setting the bar for construction and size. The draw was easy and the aroma spicy and tobacco-listic (if that is a word!)!
Initially there was a hint of nuttiness and light peppers, and exceptionally smooth. It tasted, for me, surprisingly light in strength and medium in body, having the same blandness as a Robusto T with hardly any bitterness, with smoke enough to satisfy your average cigar smoke lover, not too much to overwhelm a room.
The middle portion brought out a roasted, toasty caramel flavour, hints of cedar, and peppers increasing slightly, while maintaining that super smooth kick. However towards the final 1/3 the flavours did intensify becoming more medium to full bodied (for me at least!), bringing out hints of fruitiness, nutty almonds, sweetness, and a thicker smoke. Yet the stick did leave my mouth rather dry and salty.
As for the ash, it did start off smooth with some flakiness, but toward the middle and
