I'm easing my way back into cigars after a on/off 10 year hiatus. I don't smoke anymore so they sort of fell to the wayside and bar a few sticks in holiday over the years I've not really indulged. Since the price of Cubans has gone up quite a lot in the last 10 years I decided to dip my toe in the 'New World' arena of smokes. This cigar was my first try and I was very pleasantly surprised. First off, clearly been stored perfectly. It was springy yet firm to the touch and smelt great. On first light it was quite bitter and I could tell that there was an underlying flavour there but the bitterness was rather over powering. However, after about 5 mins the cigar completely changed and became almost toffee/caramel tasting and really got better the further down I smoked it. The last third was powerful and rich, very woody with hints of earth and tasted like I was smoking nature, which was incredible. I have another one with the darker wrapper which I'll have at a party next week. I only hope it is as good.

Cigar V Cut Cutter - Black
by Jenny
As much as I hate to leave a negative review, because until this purchase, CGars products have been faultless. Unfortunately this is not the case for this cutter.
Now I know it’s a cheap cutter, but it should still be fit for purpose.
I bought this as a way to try a V cut, but sadly, all this did was ruin the end of my cigar.
The cut was ragged, barely formed a ‘V’ and also cracked the wrapper, creating a less than satisfactory smoking experience.
My advice, avoid this and spend a little more if you want to try a V cut.

Smoked via a punch cut.
Very easy draw, and burnt well.
Quite Peppery on the lips, and lots of lovely sweet smoke, not bitter at all, which I have found with some other cheap cigars.
Lasted an hour.
Excellent value for money.
Will definitely be buying these again.

All I can say is that I must of got a bad one. On the cold draw it was very tight.
After correctly toasting the foot and with it being in my humidor for a couple of weeks at 69Rh, it was nearly impossible to draw.
Full flavoured and medium to full in strength but I persisted with it for 15 minutes it was nearly impossible to draw so I cut of the lit end about an inch and from both ends used my perfect draw multiple times.
One time as I removed the perfect draw it pulled out a very long thick tobacco leaf vein of which I had never seen before.
I persisted with the smoke and the pull was slightly better but still difficult to say the least.
It was only after I removed the band did it start to burn evenly and the draw became how it should of been from the start.
It was when I was encroaching the nub did this cigar become enjoyable, so yes I was unlucky to get such a bad one.

Nice smelling cigar. Smoked via a small punch cut. Very easy to draw. Lots of sweet smelling smoke.
Slightly peppery on the lips. Nice aroma on the retrohale.
Little bit harsh, but not too bad considering the low price. Lasted about 20 minutes.
Will buy again as gets a quick fix for short car journeys.
