Mitchellero Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Chris
A fantastic cigar for the price, everyone should have a few of these in their humidor. Well constructed with an even burn and easy draw. Medium intensity with subtle peppery notes and a oaky flavour. A very enjoyable 45-50min!!

Drew Estate Acid Kuba Kuba Cigar - 1 Single
by Benjamin
Starts off very sweet almost artificial. This calms down after a couple of puffs but still retains a sweet very mild flavour throughout with no development. Floral and herbal notes are predominant with no spice or bitterness at all. Construction is excellent, burns well with plumes of smoke a couple of touch ups required but nothing major.
Definitely good to try if you want something a bit different. This doesn’t taste like a traditional cigar which, although expected, will be the reason I wouldn’t rush to purchase again.

I Purchased a box of these in 2018 and recently tried a few and they are very tight on the draw, not enjoyable at all, so Im waiting to get a PerfectDraw draw enhancer when next in stock. Its not my humidor because I have smoked other Cuban cigars from it that have been fine. Hopefully I can enjoy them when I get the enhancer, which Ive read up about and some people use them on all their cigars regradless of the fact if they are plugged or not. Ill reassess my rating after later.

Having seen the reviews of this, I purchased a couple of these on my last trip to Cgars St James.
I had high hopes upon lighting, seemed great. After the initial burn and taste it was like sucking golf ball through a hose! From what I’d read, the Fundadores were supposed to be the creme de la creme! I was found wanting.
Yes, 40rg you’d expect a resistant draw but I gave up after 3 relights. I’ll let it grow in the garden!

Por Larranaga Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single
by Alexander
I received this cigar in my monthly subscription. IÂ’m not sure I would have ordered it for myself. However I am glad it was included: it lasted 30-45 minutes. I punched the cigar and the draw was perfect. It was smooth and sweet from the first light and maintained those notes well throughout. A little spice is present but itÂ’s gentle. I got notes of nuts, wood and occasional a little earth. I think the cigar is good value for money and it was very nice to have a sweeter - less grassy Cuban.

I recommend cutting these precisely in half. You get two 45 minute smokes,perfect for walking the dog or going on a walk. I know cutting cigars in half is a cardinal sin but theres an exemption now and again. The flavours arent really anything to hark on about but all in all its fairly pleasant.
