This Charatan Claro is hands down up there with pne of the best mild cigar I’ve smoked to date! (Perdomo 10th Anniversary slightly topping it ) the claro is a pure creamy perfection in every puff. From the first light, it delivers a silky smooth experience rich toast, fresh cedar, toasted almonds and a gentle honeyed sweetness that coats the palate without ever overwhelming. No harshness, no pepper bite, just elegant, refined creaminess that feels luxurious yet approachable.
The draw is flawless, the burn even and cool, and the ash holds solid classic premium construction. The flavor stays consistent through the entire smoke, never getting hot or bitter, which is rare for a short format like the Half Churchill . It’s the kind of cigar I can enjoy first thing in the morning or after dinner without needing to adjust my palate.
If you love smooth, creamy, “not too much” cigars, this is a must try. Easily one of the most enjoyable and repeatable smokes in my humidor.
Highly recommend – Charatan Claro is a 5-star winner.

What a fantastic cigar.
Lovely smooth draw, perfect construction that didn’t require any touch ups. Beautiful smooth taste and perfect smoke. A new regular addition to the humidor.

I received this Oliva Orchant Seleccion Skinny Cigar as a mystery cigar.
It's a good cigar draw was quite tight throughout but it was a very delicious smoke it's one of the best Orchant selection cigars I had.
It's quite spicy but I will try it in a bit bigger format

I would say this was my first proper cigar. I’ve smoked cigars before but always after too many drinks and always with no knowledge of what I’m smoking. This cigar I smoked in the late afternoon on a driech Scottish day. Paired with a glass of Leffe Blonde and a dram of 14 yr old Jura. On the dry inhale it had a woodland autumnal taste, perhaps a bit of old leather bound books. The first third was mellow, milk chocolate, flat white coffee. I loved it. The whisky tasted better, smoother, the sweetness of the bourbon cask really coming through. The second and final thirds progressed through a deeper coffee and darker chocolate flavour but never too bitter. I think the Leffe and Jura helped here. The retrohales were warm gentle spice throughout. It was marvellous, I'm going to buy another. I’ve not smoked anything to compare it to but that’s a high bar. No issues with how it burned or smoked. Thank you to My Father and the people who made this cigar. What a great introduction to cigar smoking.

In my opinion Joya De Nicaragua do not miss.
This was a light but flavourful smoke, I would say more medium than medium full. It burnt evenly but was at risk of going out on a couple of occasions.
The main flavour was a soft consistent milkly coffee later developing into a burnt sugar towards the end.
