Mitchellero Peru Toro Cigar - Box of 20 by Justin

I?ve smoked a good few of these now and decide to purchase a box of 20 in November last year. Overall I?m happy with these cigars. They last me for around an hour each time and I?d say they?re absolutely fantastic value for money. A few things of note. It?s a bit hit and miss with the burn sometimes. You?ll get one that cooperates just fine and burns evenly. Sometimes you?ll get one that doesn?t. Overall though, they mostly behave and even the uneven ones can correct themselves along the way sometimes. Mild notes of cedar, some espresso and even a creamy flavour can develop in some of them. I?ve even had some hints of coconut as well. This definitely improves the more you age them. I?ve had one or two that got a bit bitter on me at the halfway mark or so but purging the cigar seems to fix this and brings the better flavours back to the table. Overall, I?m easy going so these more than meet my expectations for this price point. I would highly recommend the Mitchellero Peru Toro if you?re after a nice, well-sized cigar at a reasonable price.

La Invicta Honduran Maduro Cigar - 1 Single by Robert

Really enjoyed this. I'm new to cigars but this strikes me as the perfect cigar, nice flavour, nice burn, great draw. Smoked one with a friend who prefers the well known Cuban brands and he was blown away by it.

Italico Rosso Arabico Cigars - Pack of 5 by Duncan

Bit of a shock when you draw on the first out of the box. As the other reviewer, Mark, says, very pipe like, I would say dark Cavendish. Wasn't sure after I reached the end quite a heady deep acrid aroma to it. I then went on to smoke a couple of Inca's and came back to try another. I must say it felt good. Steady long lasting burn deep oily cherry tones, a comforting experience. I have just popped another box in my cart. I must say that for me I now find Italian cigars of this type hard to beat. Good value, full flavours reliable construction with no flaking or unwrapping during the smoke. Mark must be a hard sucker because I can easily get 40 minuets out of mine. Recommended

Alec Bradley Orchant Seleccion Pointy Cigar - 1 Single by Hayder

Currently somking the Alec Bradley Orchant Seleccion (last 3rd), this was suggested by a nice chap from the St James's St branch of C.Gars. I found this to be a very aromatic (pleasant smell). In terms of taste notes (this subjective) I found it to have an ever so slight sweetness, I tasted pepper notes and spicey notes, will need buy again (all though a bit above my budget) to taste the coffee (espresso) note. Construction very well made I did have to touch it up and relight a few times but probably due to me rather than the cigar itself. I always find myself finding difficult to strike the delicate balance of not smoking too fast as the cigar does get hot and leaving it too late for the next puff (I am getting there). The smoke was very creamy. I love the spiceiness on the lips and tip of the toungue especially when retro haling. I found all the cigars I have bought from C.Gars to have a creamy smoke to them be it a small 32 ring gauge or the bigger 40+ ring gauge cigars. The friendly chap did mention to me that the Mayfiar branch have more of the cigars I was after which w
