On first impressions before lighting I didnt have particularly high expectations of this cigar - the wrapper was a bit loose/flaky but aside from a few bits that fell off initially it held its shape. No distinct fragrance when unlit but in terms of bang for your buck this is certainly good value. Took 40 minutes to smoke and despite it being marked as a strong cigar, as per another review, Id say is was more of a medium strength example. Light pepperiness and spiciness, respectable plumes of smoke and no ashtray taste left in your mouth that you can get with cigars in this price range. Youre rewarded in the last third with some slight chocolate notes. Held the ash well, only two sections fell during smoking and didnt need re-lighting, suggesting a decent construction. Steady smoke with no harshness and a solid choice for a budget cigar.

Romeo y Julieta No. 3 Tubed Cigar - 1 Single

I wouldn’t buy this again. Tastes of tobacco predominately. Nothing to get excited about. A bit disappointed. Well-constructed cigar, burns well and even. It’s fun to try different cigars but I’ve smoked more exciting ones. This falls flat.

Just above freezing in the garden with a glass of whisky on a winter’s day. Lovely surprise. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Absolutely lovely smoke. So smooth, perfect burn. Wish it lasted longer!

Camacho Connecticut Machitos Cigar - 1 Single
by Philomena
Lovely mild pleasant smoke. I like something with more complexity but for the price this is a good buy. An enjoyable 20 mins.

The leading flavour of this cigar is simply tabacco. The notes are earth, charred wood, leather..etc. There is pepper and spice in the final third on the pallet but not heavily on the retrohale. This is a cigar that could be smoked regularly by a heavy smoker but not one to be savoured on an evening or special occasion.
Construction: ash stayed intact for 2 inches, required 3 corrections and one relight
Draw: very tight for first 1/3, medium after than
