Loved this, was looking for a quick smoke while lighting a barbecue with a decent IPA and this fitted the bill. Lovely floral notes from the outset and the ash held well (over an inch) all the way through, burn was surprisingly excellent and while the draw got progressively tighter it was fine. Nice little cigar, quality as expected from RyJ and will buy again.

Don’t be put off by all the bad reviews. This is actually a nice cigar. It’s not pretending to be Cuban, it’s under £6 for a tubed corona. I really enjoyed it. Lovely smoke, about 40 mins, even burn and nice flavour. Long ash, nice aroma. Not the best taste compared to Cubans but for under £6 it’s hard to beat!

Very Nice Cigar, Started quite harsh and bitter, though may be a result of lighting. After a couple minuets it came into its stride, holding the ash nicely and presenting a satisfying draw. Mainly nutty/woody flavour, nothing striking. Had to relight once in the last third, though was likely because I was taking my time. All in all a excellent cigar for the price. 50 Minuets to the Nub. Good to have in your Humidor.

I have mixed feelings about these. I liked the taste and smell but I was made to work for the pleasure. I smoked the small one a week ago at the tail end of a long late night so I only have vague memories of it being mild but pleasant. Three nights ago I smoked the pointy cigar. I got YouTube advice (from mr perdomo) on where to cut a pointed cigar and off I went. Unfortunately it was impossible to get a draw. I didnt know if it was the stick or the cut (it was both). After a few minutes sucking i went with my gut and cut it again closer to the shoulder, kinda defeating the purpose of a pointed end ,surely!. After that however, the draw was much better, it revealed the flavour of the cigar which was very nice and lasted close to 1 1/2 hours, which I was very pleased with. It wasnt all plain sailing though as it was still quite a tight draw and had to be smoked frequently to keep the cherry going. When left a minute, i had to really stoke it to get sufficient smoke from it again. I thought maybe that was down to this particular vitola/guage and was optimistic about the third stick a

I have to say this cigar was not for me. I was looking forward to lighting it after it had sat in my humidor for six months, but from the first draw I just could not get into it. I thought it was quite a bitter smoke and although the ash held extremely well, the burn was uneven all the way and I had to constantly touch the side with a flame to try and make it even. I gave up half way through and walked away. Maybe it was just an unlucky stick that you sometimes get, but I dont think Ill be trying another anytime soon.
