Inka Secret Blend Blue Robusto Cigar - 1 Single by Yusuf

This one’s definitely a strong contender for a regular rotation! Right off the bat, the aroma is unique—aromatic with an unexpected hint of florals. For a full-bodied cigar, it’s surprisingly smooth with no harsh peppery bite. The first half delivers tangy, buttery notes that really wake up the palate. Moving into the second half, you get rich flavours of dark chocolate and a touch of charred chestnut—complex and deeply satisfying. As for construction, it’s a bit on the rough side. I learned it’s rolled with small binds, which explains the slightly inconsistent texture. That said, the burn has remained impressively even throughout.

Davidoff Grand Cru No. 5 Cigar - 1 Single by Brad

Lovely, well built and easy draw.. enjoyed very much, and a nice quicker smoke with coffee. Tasting notes still difficult for me to pick up (still immature palate) but felt a nutty, smooth taste. Second Davidoff I’ve tried, and would buy again.

Turmeaus 1817 Blend Pipe Tobacco 50g Tin by Joshua

This tobacco has a warm smokey aroma before it is even lit. The smoke is extremely smooth with a mellow strength. I got hints of liquorish. A very pleasant smoke. I'll be sampling a few more tobaccos to find my daily smoke but this is definitely a contender.

Cohiba Siglo I Cigar - 1 Single by Joshua

A slightly awkward smoke with a very tight draw. I use a guillotine cutter I had to cut the end a bit further down than usual to get a proper draw. However, there was no unraveling and it smoked mostly perfect all the way down with a single touch up on one side. The flavours were wonderfully complex, coffee and dark chocolate with a honey after taste. The honey got much stronger the further down the stick I got. With a great aroma throughout. It certainly packed a punch and is worth the money.

Montecristo Open Master Cigar - 1 Single by George

I like the cigar it’s tasty when it’s not tight draw, but like most cubans now days it’s gamble 50-50 chance of a good one, witch is very unfortunate.

La Flor Dominicana El Carajon Cigar - 1 Single by John

I had high hopes for this cigar but was alas disappointed. It lights well, and burns very well but the wrapper started unravelling immediately. I had not cigar glue, and this spoiled my enjoyment no end. The flavour was up and down throughout the 30-minute smoke time, sometimes smooth and flavoursome, then harsh and unpleasant. I don't know if this was because of the poor build quality of my cigar. Perhaps I was unlucky in getting a poorly-made one, and I may have enjoyed it more if I'd had some cigar glue to repair it. I might try it again at some point, but based on this experience alone, it was not value for money.
