This is the 1st time I have purchased one of these cigars & I am very impressed. I prefer a milder cigar & this really hit the spot. The draw was very good & it lasted a good 45 minuets. I was so impressed that I have already ordered a box of five.

First time trying this cigar. I had a very enjoyable smoke and will re-order more.

As a relative newbie, my perspective may not be as informed as others, however for other people just coming into cigar smoking, I would give this one a miss.
Very peppery at the start and certainly mellowed towards the end. The final third was certainly the most enjoyable part, but at that point it was starting to smoke hot, which took away from the flavour a little. Earthy and spicy notes throughout which became more balanced as it progressed, however it needed multiple touch ups and I found the burn quite uneven.
Started this off with spring water, but I changed to an Irish single malt which greatly enhanced the experience and this is where the cigar became a more enjoyable experience.
A good 30 to 40 minute smoke. Not bad, but not great.

Back in the day, I had a friendly merchant in The USA who would ship to The UK & they would regularly send free samples, usually of Gurkhas. Of the dozen or so I tried, I didnt find a single one I wanted to smoke again! They all tasted dirty, for the want of a better word. Strong, dusty & rather unpleasant. A decade later I decided to give this little one a try and even though I find pig tail caps really annoying (require both clipping AND punching!) this proved to be one of the most enjoyable sticks I have smoked! Nice white ash that stays together well, not too hot a smoke and a very mild flavour, which was surprising from a Maduro. Just ordered a box as a result.

Such a pretty cigar — but that was about it, for me. First two thirds were a big disappointment: burnt, harsh flavours. Final third picked up a little bit, comprising some nice earthy and peppermint notes. Can only assume I had a bit of an off stick.

Brick House Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Ahmed
First let me thank Brick House, and (The Nicaraguan people) so much for this great Cigar.
Medium to full body, the draw, burn, and construction are amazing. Varied bouquet of Flavors, aromas, and after tastes.. Such as ... woody, vanilla, Peache, and rich smoke. I will make sure keeps a large number of these woooow fancy sticks in my cigar humidors. Thank you so much C.GARS , Michelle Adler for all excellent choices and services.✨
