I think the 3 star rating is accurate for this one, first third was boring and underwhelming, around the half way point it started to get interesting and the final third was actually really enjoyable but sadly started to peel on the last third too. Better than a Henri Winterman corona at least but wish i bought the Inka secret blend corona instead, far better smoke for less than a tenner

Oliva Serie V Double Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Zdzislaw
My, it shows how tastes and opinions can vary. I tried one of these after reading reviews here and elsewhere, including in many supposedly learned journals highly commending them. The result? In my opinion a dull, monotonous smoke dominated by too much spice and lacking any balance, or nuance in flavour. Hugely disappointed.

Mitchellero Corona Cigar - Box of 20
by David
This cigar surprised me. Despite its affordability, there's no compromise on quality. I'm not a pro, but the way it's rolled feels fancy. From the initial light to the final ash, the burn is consistently even and the draw is perfect. The taste is rich and flavourful. I never thought a cigar at this price could be this good. If you're looking for a solid cigar without going overboard on cost, this one's a winner.

Dark, sweet, and delicious, with notes of coffee, dried fruits and chocolate. l smoked one at Cgars St James, paired with their Dominique Selection Cognac...outstanding. Andy Grice 💨💨✌️

What can I say - this cigar was -fantastic-
Thoroughly enjoyed the smoke from start to finish while I was lighting a wood fire outdoors. It seemed to smoke quicker than I expected but probably cos I was chatting & doing something else at the same time.
The drawbacks(lol)? The label was a tad fiddly to remove (with my sausage fingers) by the time I got down to it but I tore it off in strips as delicately as I could. A little bit of a sideburn half-way, but I eased up on it and it eventually corrected itself.
Now the flavour: this was delicious! Quite complex but well-rounded, & it got sweeter about 4/10ths of the way down. I found it had a nutty and slightly creamy undertone. Nice big smooth draw, no harshness, just a wonderful & thick full-mouth feel.
Definitely one I am buying again. I'll smoke it slower for sure, this is one worth savouring every puff & wisp.

Quorum Shade Grown Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Zdzislaw
I tried one of these gifted by a fellow cigar smoking friend as a recommendation at what we laughingly refer to as the budget end of the market. Not bad at all for what it is, well put together with mellow flavours, nothing too complicated, pleasant enough. I discussed further with another friend across the pond and he spat out his coffee, you can get get the them for around $2 over there! Why are UK prices so usurious? :-(
