I smoked my last cigar in my sample set and this was the last one I thought it was one of the nicest in my box, very smooth i have had it in my humidor for a year so i dont know if that added to the taste. I actually came back on here to buy somemore, lovely smoke please try it. Thanks Ian Ripper

Chinchalero Torpeditos Cigar - 1 Single
by Nathan
Now, this came as one hell of a surprise given the low price tag, but only based on other, bad 'cheap' experiences. Don't be fooled by the low cost Chinchalero, it's a pleasant and remarkably flavoursome smoke. Admittedly it's a long way off from any true Cuban, but as a stand alone it is more than capable of holding its own. Lasted around 40 minutes, during which I had hints of floral, light earth, and tea. Managed to take it down pretty much to the nub and behaved impeccably, with no lip burn and minimal bitterness. Makes a pleasant post meal, midweek lighter smoke, delivers all you could ask from a stick in this price range, and earns itself a place in my humidor as a definite 'why not?'

Cohiba Panetelas Cigar - 1 Single
by Nathan
I found this cigar very hard work, and for little gain. The flavour was lacklustre, and the second half was both too hot and too bitter for my taste. I'm not sure that this stick quite warrants the typically high cohiba price of its colleagues.

Bolivar Royal Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Nathan
Have just indulged in my first of these, after a full Sunday roast and appreciated with (firstly) a fresh coffee and (secondly) a dark rum. Currently I'm trying to work out how to muster the money for a full box - this cigar is damned near perfect. Excellent draw from finish to end, never hostile, never bitter, never tarry. Just superb. Strong flavours of coffee and black assam tea, creamy with a cocoa hint, and an aftertaste of smoked mopani wood. Took this fellow all the way to the nub and it could do no wrong. Agree with the other writers that the nicotine hit is something out of this world, and I for one would not consider this cigar on an empty belly. Buy some, and enjoy then on a full stomach, and you might be grinning as much as I am right now.

This a nice cigar for the money I.e. flavour, taste and aroma. I just did not want to put it out. I have ordered a Robusto made by these people and i can not wait to smoke it.

Nice smoke if only it was a inch or two longer, then this would of been a even better smoke. As it finished to soon.
