As soon as this arrived I was amazed by the delicious smell of the cigar. It really does smell of lovely dark chocolate and coffee. The wrapper is very sweet on the lips which I really like. I’m fairly nee to the cigar world so I’m trying as many new things as I can. I can say that this is by far the best cigar I’ve smoked. Very smooth, good burn and easy draw. Very enjoyable indeed. Will be buying more.

I recently purchased the corn cob legend as it had good reviews, and it was cheap. I had not smoked a pipe for years so wanted to know if I really did want to smoke one again, so I went for a cheap version.
I have to say, I love this pipe and am really enjoying smoking it.
It gives a constant smoke, & packed correctly it doesn’t go out quickly.
I will keep this pipe as long as possible and will certainly get another when this one is finished.
Great pipe great company. Highly recommend both. Thank you

Montecristo Joyitas Cigar - 1 Single
by Garry
When I finished this cigar, I felt I had smoked a 1/4 of a Montecristo no4. But for the price…..well wouldn’t you want you to spend £5 extra and buy the real thing?

I got this in my July Sub Box.
Well, the wrapper was ugly. It looked like it was stitched together by Dr Frankenstein. It looked a little dry, but the feel to the touch felt like a cigar kept at 69% hm.
So, IÂ’m not a massive smoker of Cubans, so I was excited nonetheless to try it.
I gave this cigar a V cut.
The lighting was fine. The first draw seemed a little tight which panicked me to begin with. I thought the quality was going to be too dry to get a good draw.
After a tad more toasting, my mind settled when the draw became smoother (Not wind tunnel smooth, but just a nice even draw)
The flavour was a lovely oak and nutty taste.
The burn needed touched up but after a touch up I got 40 mins of even smoke and the ash was a darkish grey.
I in all got 1 hour by pacing this smoke.
The end really picked up and it was the best of all. It got spicy, stronger and it really picked up on flavour. Spicy oak which was amazing. As I continued into my last 10 mins, the burn became uneven and need a touch up but I didnÂ’t really care so much because I was enjoying the flavour so much.

HORRIBELieee, TERRIBLE, DISCUSTING THINGS !! Dont buy one ! Please, CGars might run out and I wont be able to get more !!
No, seriously this has become my favourite smoke, not cheap by any means but worth every penny in my humble view. Ive been working my way through CGars inventory, different wrappers and regions, lengths and gauges, gave up on the Cubans as without keeping them in the humidor for a month theyre always too tight, dry boxing, zips in the fridge; then I happened on these little guys, wonderful !! The Brick House are a very close 2nd and give a bit more variety in flavours but these are the real deal, perfect to light, give one 10 minutes or so, then walk Dogface then have another half hour when you get back.
I used to go for the loner sticks but Ive changed my taste , this Robusto 5 by 52 is perfect for me. I tried this and a few others out of frustration and havent looked back. As said the Brick House and a few others are really nice but this is my personal favourite, maybe not for others. Give one a blast, I did this on a whim and love them, my very first EVER

This was my mystery cigar from last months subscription box & I wasn’t disappointed.
I had no idea of what to expect beyond the size and construction and the aesthetics of the cigar itself.
The wrapper was flawless. A real dark cocoa coloured wrapper, it was just beautifully constructed. You could tell a lot of effort has went into the construction of the cigar and it shows.
The lighting was one of the best experiences I’ve had. A very even burn with no touch ups at all. I made this cigar last me around an hour and ten by taking it slow and steady. The flavours are medium with a great spice and cedar note with creamy white smoke and ash. The ash held well too.
It was one of those cigars I nubbed and didn’t want to end! It was just a lovely relaxing smoke, just shooting the breeze and thinking about nothing but the flavour and experience. This is my first Mexican cigar, so that’s been a real treat. I think I’ll certainly return to this cigar in the future. Thank you for the wonderful choice, Georgina.
