Wow, this cigar was incredible. I tried to forget the hyperbole surrounding the Winston Churchill aspect but could not. I enjoyed this after a long and stressful day. The flavours are beyond my ability to describe accurately but I sank into this cigar and found myself wandering in my mind to a time long gone. An excellent cigar, perfect draw and it just looked oily and delicious. The flavours were complex and beyond my ability to pinpoint but I highly recommend. I shall be ordering more

Really, the date is very fresh and I wonder if its because this sells so well. I feel like this one tastes very much like pipe tobacco: Kendal Twist. The nicotine flavour is noticeable as soon as you open the tin.It has no additional fragrance， It is very pure.

Pleasantly surprised by this cigar,
Great construction and even burn,
Good volume of smoke and plenty of taste.
Great value for money,
Will definitely be buying again.

Not subtle, not delicate, but if you need to smoke and to know you have, it scores all-round. It?s cheap as you appear to get at least twice the volume, it has good flavour and throat feel, . . If like me you inhale. I would smoke during an evening paired to a robust red wine. As every penny counts these days I?d opt for this tobacco and keep my gas fire burning! 10 out of 5.

I was keen to try a Culebra cigar as they are hard to get hold of, especially the Partegas which seems to be permanently out of stock. So, I jumped at the opportunity to try the Alec Bradley when it came up as a ?flash sale?. The cigar is mild to medium, quite sweet I thought with vanilla notes which don?t change throughout the entire smoke. Smoking time is about half an hour. Although the draw was fine, it didn?t burn evenly and was quite hard work requiring two relights.
Not a bad experience but definitely not as enjoyable as I had hoped and would hesitate to buy again.

Ordered 4 of these to try, on opening the order gave them the smell test and all 4 had a distinct smell of ammonia. I put them in the humidor for a day and thought I would try one, but the ammonia taste was there in the smoke, I had to do a burn purge 4 times to try and burn the ammonia off. It did burn well, nice and even and was not terrible but the ammonia has put me off. I will leave the other 3 for a few months but wont be ordering these again, im surprised nobody else has mentioned this in the reviews. Shame as they are a good price for a 40 min smoke.
