Ive come on to buy a bunch of these and noticed that since my review a few days ago they have gone up in price by 70p a stick! Thats a lot . I noticed that the michellero range went up too. Very disappointing. And theyve just lost a sale to a competitor off the back of it... Its bad enough UK smokers pay three times what they do in Europe and the US without having prices increase every time you turn around

CLE Asylum 13 Goliath Cigar - 1 Single
by Richard
So I took the plunge after hearing from a friend how great the Goliath is. Personally I always thought it a bit of gimmick and not for avid cigar smokers. Was I wrong? Yes, okay it is on large size but man did it feel great in your hand. As a Cuban fan for many years I always stayed away from new world but I was totally surprised. It does take a few attempts to get it lit properly but once going it burned perfectly, the aroma and flavours were amazing. To me the Goliath and Hercule have trumped Havana cigars by a mile, definite convert here.

Overall, an extremely pleasant smoke for a 5 minute break. You could stretch this to 10 minutes if you’re in no hurry.
These little fire crackers have the same beautiful taste and smoke of the Escurio Petit Robusto Cello, a personal favourite.
These are the high quality I expect of Davidoff.
These little cigarillo’s have such a beautiful flavour.
I’m not a fan of small gauge cigars, but these I can live with to stretch my Petit Robusto’s a little further.
They are pricey, but you’re paying for the expertise of Davidoff, the beautiful flavour and the fantastic wrapper which is all expert.
The Escurio range is far becoming my Number One range from Davidoff.
5/5.

Now, here we have something ! Took the foot band off, wet, toast and light and pure heaven. Im a slow smoker so expected to have to re-light, no not at all. Very pleased with this medium to full cigar, my last Robusto was a bit too strong for me, unusual ! The wrapper gave a light taste to it but a go to again cigar for me.
I never give 5 stars, this is a 4.8 :)

I received this cigar as part of my July 21 subscription, I have always really liked Davidoff Escurio but never tried this petit robusto. Absolutely magnificent and is definitely on my top cigars list. Excellent construction, beautiful smoke, leathery, woody and very smooth with a mild hint of sweetness. It stayed true throughout and lasted a very enjoyable 45 minutes. Rating 9/10

I think these are a fantastic cigar. They smell wonderful! Ive had quite a few now and always enjoy them. Great draw, never any issues with burn, never have to re-light even though im a slow smoker, good smoke output and has that classic cigar taste and smell many people enjoy. Leaves a lovely taste in the mouth well after Ive finished it too.
It not the most complex or overpowering in terms of flavour changes or pepper and spice, but its is creamy, consistant and the flavour gets even better in the second half. A great stick for under a tenner and I cant wait to try some more expensive Fuentes if these are their low end sticks.
Oh, and comparing this to a hamlet is like comparing supermarket own brand blended whiskey to a 12yo single malt
