Quai d Orsay No. 52 Cigar - 1 Single
by chris
I hate complaining and most times put up with it but I bought two of these yesterday and not even ten minutes in with a few puffs (that were incredibly difficult) it began unravelling from the lit end. I know it's hit n miss with hand rolled cigars but it's a pisser when it happens.

Bolivar Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single
by RICHARD
What a fantastic little cigar. After a cold draw I realises it might be a bit tight, so I used the perfect draw tool. For a small cigar it packs plenty of flavour. Very smooth, not much spice but plenty of oaky, nutty tones. I recommend this cigar for anyone that wants a 30 - 45 min smoke with a great feeling of flavour satisfaction.

As a new cigar smoker, must say this was probably a middle of the pack cigar. As I write this I am into the final third and the taste is quite good from the halfway point onwards. However, the cigar was falling apart in the middle (this wasn't due to a bad cut as I received it pre-cut) and the draw was terrible. The cigar made up for it in smoking time and taste, as this lasted me around 1hr. I won't get this again but I recommend for a first time smoker

Ordered two of these sticks. One to smoke immediately and one to stash in the humidor. First one was every unpleasant and I didn?t enjoy however cannot complain for the price as it?s what you may expect. However the second stick was completely different, very well rolled, lovely depth of flavour and great amount of smoke. Would recommend, but grab a few as you may get a dud. Would buy again as a quick little ?dog walker?
