Im only recently getting into cigars. I must have been unlucky but the cigar was completely plugged at the foot. I looked for tips online on how to improve a tight drag. A paperclip poked through the end was suggested but the draw remained tight no matter how many times I inserted the paperclip to try and unplug it. A shame really as I was looking forward to this smoke...

Mitchellero Picadillo Cigar - 1 Single
by Martin
Sorry, but this was an awful smoke.
Previously I have had the Mitchellero Novellini cigars, which I have happily given 5 stars, but this Picadillo was so loosely packed that is was almost half a cigar. After a short time of smoking the burn was so uneven that when one side was 1 cm of ash, the other was at 2.7 mm. I have a second cigar still to smoke, which I hope will be better and will report upon it again, but looking at other reviews this appears to be a common problem with the Picadillo, so I am not optimistic.
CGars might like to check some of their stock to see what they think of it.

Ouch and no!!.....
Looks like a nice stick, something youd offer around happily, with its stylish looking bands, well constructed and smooth skinned, but only if it hadnt been smoked first.
To the pallet, it was overly spiced, like an unbalanced curry, all heat and no flavour.
The overall taste made me want to expel the smoke instantly, rather than to savour and gently release through my nose and mouth. Also left my mouth feeling very dry and unpleasant.
The nose has hints of a earthy leather but nothing else really.
Sadly not for me and would have to say probably one of the worst ive tasted.

My local tobacconist can get me these little beauties in a pack of 10 and at £6.50 each.A full bodied smoke that retains a long ash.Not harsh on the palate.Stays lit and doesnt need relighting.Would suggest for a newcomer to cigars.

Im pretty new to the real cigar world, and I have seen a lot of comments about Dutch cigars, generally low marks. Ive tried 3 or 4 variations now, and i must admit, for just under three pounds, youll get a cracking stick to smoke.
I find the build was good, no splits or cracks, no loose wrapper, and nothing left in the mouth after a pull.
The draw is easy, and a good amount of smoke was produced.
To my taste, there was a sweetness and a hit like oak barrels, with a note of peppery spice.
For me, it is a definite everyday smoke that Id glady and will add to the humi.
