Mitchellero Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Matthew
Perfectly pleasant, with an even burn.
Id definitely put it at the mild end of medium though, with quite a low smoke output for the first 3rd.
A good wedding cigar or one to try for someone new to Cigars. I think it may be a tad bland for anyone used to more full bodied flavours.

This is a unbelievable cigar for the price range, tastes great, burns wonderfully, good size and ring gauge. A 45-60mins smoke. Ill definitely be buying more.

I am still relatively new to cigars, but by now have tried a few - and these have become my affordable, regular smoke for the moment. Ive generally found the draw and construction to be consistently good. They have just the right amount of flavour for me, not too mild but not overpowering. Im not good at writing tasting notes - I just get an enjoyable, woody/peppery cigar taste. Gains some more oomph around the last half or third.
Of course, they dont have all the sophisticated flavours of more expensive cigars - but at this price, would you really expect that?

I bought a bundle of Jose L. Piedra cigars a few years ago when I was very new to cigars, and liked them. So, I was looking forward to these - but they were very disappointing.
The flavours were very mild, though I knew they would be so I have no problems there. The problem was the draw - I would estimate well over half the cigars were bunged so tight that I could barely smoke them. The analogy of sucking a golf ball through a straw comes to mind. They also burned quite unevenly, though I expect that was the result of me over-puffing to try and get any smoke out of the damn things.
When I persevered, they got better around the last third, and the flavours - though light and mild - were pleasant enough. But I got so brassed off with the draw issues, I binned a few of them early on (which is unusual for me, as I am a bit of a skinflint and usually try and get my moneys worth).
Maybe I had a dud box - but personally for this price point, I would now go for a blue Inka Secret Blend instead of these. Being Cuban clearly isnt everything.

This is a decent everyday smoke. Budget friendly. Draws nice, smokes well and holds an OK Ash. Wrapper was good. Held together well.

Ive probably smoked 15 to 20 different cigars in the last year, all roughly £12 - £25 each or thereabouts. The Montecristo No.4 is by far the best. I just cant fault it at all. The earthy smooth coffee flavour is never too strong, never too mild. The draw is never too tight, never too loose. This cigar simply delivers perfection for me. My favourite my a long way.
