AVO Classic Uvezian Puritos - Tin of 10
by Antony
After sampling a single AVO Classic Uvezian Purito, I ordered a tin of ten.
Sadly I have found them quite inconsistent in two areas.
The first being drawing; so far 3 of 6 smoked the draw has been so tight I have had to try cutting short lengths off to get an acceptable draw. This has been between 20mm and 40mm, not really acceptable.
The second being flavour; 4 of these six have been bitter and harsh.
A disappointment following the lovely flavor and draw of the original sample.
A waste of over £50.

This is first cigar i smoked from my August subscription and wow. What a cigar. Smooth, flavoursome, good level of smoke and a great draw. I would definitely purchase these separately and have already added it to my favourites list. Hope the rest of the subscription cigars are as good as this one.

I enjoyed this cigar - it might not quite make my favourites list, but a perfectly pleasant smoke.
The construction was great, and the burn line was really neat throughout. It held a good ash and produced lots of smoke.
I found it had a strong cedar flavour throughout, but the flavours mellowed through the second and last third - and super-smooth on the retrohale (which is unusual for me).

A beautiful cigar to behold—I found myself marvelling at it as I smoked it down to the nub. The first half was very smooth, though fairly mild in flavour. However, the second half developed strong, creamy notes with a faint hint of spice. It also became quite heady towards the end as the strength intensified, but this was exactly what I wanted alongside my whisky to close off the weekend.

Cohiba Shorts Cigar - 1 Single
by Joshua
After thoroughly enjoying the 'Siglo I', I wanted to check if there were more affordable Cohiba's on the market. I'm happy to say the Short really delivers Cohiba's flavour profile and aroma for a fraction of the cost. Admittedly it is tiny and a very short smoke but I was still impressed.

Well made and good looking cigar. Taste developed throughout and CA’s description of sweet and salty rings true. Plenty of smoke and effortless draw, too much in fact which is why it is only a 4 for me
