Cuaba Tradicionales Cigar - 1 Single by Nathan

A confusing start, courtesy of the design of the cigar, I struggled to get any even burning within the first third and subsequently spent more time playing than enjoying. Second part of this cigar was very pleasing, however, with hints of all I could describe as 'sweet and earthy' flavours, that may not sound that good, but work incredibly well with a nice cuban rum. The smoke increased in complexity as I worked though it, but before I knew it I was down to the stub, pining for an extra third, but not disappointed with what I'd had. Give it a whirl, you could easily spend £7.50 on something far worse, I assure you...

Charatan Original Robusto Cigar - 1 Single by Nathan

Okay, I'm on the fence with this one. First third was surprisingly lacklustre, with little in the way of draw, although in its defence it did burn very evenly and consistently. Second third and the pace started to really pick up, a medley of flavours that complimented the Cockspur rum I was drinking with it, providing a very satisfying draw at every puff. The middle of this cigar is seemingly where the action is, because... Final third became rather disappointing. Overpowering and confusing flavours, burning a little hot, and rather tarry with bitter a aftertaste, I put the thing to bed rather than follow it through. All in, I had around 45 minutes of mixed feeling with this smoke, but I'd be keen to try another sometime to see if I just had a duff one.

Trinidad Coloniales Cigar - 1 Single by Robert

Good construction; immediately pleasing to eyes, nose and fingers. No hassle when lighting. After first couple of draws, body and flavour become apparent; warm, full; slightly spicy, leather and coffee with a slight pepper... through hearty and cheering leather, cocoa and pepper to woody, still creamy, peppery and gentle leather flavours. I smoked this cigar with a spiced rum; it complimented the softer elements of the flavour. I've only a young palate, so I hope to enjoy this cigar in a few years time, after a little more practice. To conclude: Yes. Ever-so-slightly-cheaper than other equivalent, recommended, big-name smokes, without being inferior. Ferg

Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single by joe

I bought a 3 pack of these in malaga for 15 euros and let me say this is a king amongst smokes. This is what all habanos should work from because of the uncany resembalance to one another because i was smoking with my father and we were both smoking the monte 4s and he placed his cigar on my side of the ashtray and i didnt even notice that it was a different cigar!! next time i will order in larger quantitys because this one is a true finger burner.
