As always the service from C.gars was excellent..
After reading some amazing reviews, I decided to buy this cigar .
This was my 1st Gurkha cigar and I really wanted to like this Gurkha cigar, but it just didn’t deliver.
The burn was poor right from the start and needed constant touch-ups, which took away from the experience.
On top of that, there was virtually no flavour—just a flat, dull smoke with nothing memorable about it.
So I believe that there’s not bad cigars, just bad times to smoke them, so thinking it was me …. I tried a 2nd cigar …
And I can say… I don’t know were the positive reviews have come from?
.
Considering the price, it definitely doesn’t offer good value. Overall, not a cigar I’d try again

The Cavalier Genève Black Series II is one of the more distinctive cigars aesthetically, with its signature gold diamond on the wrapper, but beyond looks, it also offers a solid smoking experience. As someone still refining my palate, I found it interesting, flavorful, and well-constructed, though slightly less consistent than others I’ve tried.
The cold draw delivered notes of dark wood, dried fruit, and subtle cocoa. Once lit, the first third opened with medium-bodied flavors: earth, pepper, and a light mineral quality that seemed to be part of Cavalier’s signature style. The smoke output was good, and the draw stayed comfortable.
Moving into the second third, I picked up more richness—espresso, dark chocolate, and a faint sweetness that helped round out the profile. There were moments where the flavors jumped beautifully, followed by stretches where the complexity backed off a little more than I expected. The burn required a couple of minor corrections, though not enough to ruin the experience.
The final third had more intensity but stayed balanced enough to remain enjoya

The Fat Bottom Betty by Drew Estate is easily one of the most unique cigars I’ve tried so far. If you enjoy infused or naturally sweetened cigars, this one stands out immediately. Even as someone still early in exploring nontraditional blends, this cigar impressed me with its balance between sweetness and genuine tobacco depth.
From the moment you unband it, the aroma is unmistakably Drew Estate—rich, sweet, and full of character. The cold draw brought notes of sugar, cocoa, and molasses. Once lit, the Betty opened with a dessert-like sweetness, but not in an artificial way. It’s creamy, chocolatey, and warm, with hints of caramel and roasted coffee underneath.
The smoke output is thick and aromatic, and the burn is surprisingly consistent given how oily the wrapper is. As the smoke progresses, the sweetness softens slightly, letting more traditional flavors come forward—oak, spice, and a bit of toasted bread. The final third brings a touch more strength, balancing the sweetness beautifully.
It’s playful, rich, and very easy to enjoy. For people still discovering what they l

Cohiba Medio Siglo Cigar - Cabinet of 25
by Richard
The Cohiba Medio Siglo is one of those cigars that reminds you exactly why Cohiba sits at the top of the Cuban hierarchy. Even as someone still steadily building my experience, this cigar immediately felt like a masterclass in refinement. The short, stout format makes it approachable, but the flavor profile is pure Cohiba sophistication. On the cold draw, I picked up clean cedar, a touch of grassiness, and that unmistakable Cohiba creaminess lying underneath.
Once lit, the Medio Siglo opened beautifully with smooth, velvety smoke. The first third gave me notes of honey, soft spice, and sweet hay—balanced, rounded, and elegant. As the cigar progressed, the flavors deepened into richer tones of toasted nuts, light cocoa, and warm earth, all carried by a consistently silky texture. The construction was flawless: tight seams, perfect draw, razor-straight burn line.
What impressed me most was how balanced it stayed from start to finish. It never pushed too hard, never lost its composure. Everything felt deliberate and controlled. For a relatively short smoke, it delivers complexity

Rocky Patel Sixty Sixty Cigar - 1 Single
by Tomasz
It was okay
Tasty really tasty I will order another but a Toro size as it's my favourite vitola it's very rich and I really enjoyed it
That said the construction of the one I've got was not the best drag was very loose at the end cigar felt very soft almost falling apart.
Was canoeing a lot.
That said I believe as cigars made by hand they can't be all perfect I've ordered 60 instead of my favourite Toro because of a review on toro I which they complained about no drag at all.
So I took a thicker one. Should have been smarter than that.
They can't be all perfect so I'll try it again as the flavours where amazing and it looks great

Having smoked Cohiba’s for many years now (Siglo 1-6 /mini’s and shorts)… The Cohiba shorts are my perfect go to short smoke, for the pub or during a day out (especially amongst friends all smoking cigarettes time wise) and they provide the great Cohiba taste with easy accessibility in convenient packaging. I always felt the Cohiba minis were nice but too stick thin. The short is lovely make way cigar between the mini and a Siglo 1 which i regularly enjoy in conjunction with the Shorts for the races, nights out, functions etc. I have not yet tried the Cohiba Shorts Wide version but intend to do so for comparison.
