Another outstanding Escurio.
Lasted fifteen to twenty mins and it just tastes like pure luxury.
A small cigar that just gives you such pleasure. The wrapper is nothing less then the high standards of Davidoff. The draw is always perfect and this hasnÂ’t changed.
Just a smooth, delicate and creamy smoke.

Lovely nice smooth draw, flavourful and well worth the price.

Only bought the one cigar. 58x6.5” Connecticut wrapper. Cigar initially looked good. Before toasting/lighting it was obvious that there were a few cracks and splits near the foot. Parts of the wrapper were cracked along the length of the body. On the whole the build was poor. Upon removing the band some of the wrapper peeled away leaving a fault in the outer construction. The cigar was overly dry and needed to stay in the humidor for quite a while before it was anywhere near close to being ready to smoke. The head of the cigar was brittle and practically disintegrated upon punch cutting. Whilst smoking the filler of the cigar continued to shed tobacco flakes leaving an unpleasant mouth feel. The burn was reasonable until it hit the peeling sections of wrapper.
Sadly I wouldn’t recommend based on this cigar alone.
Taste wise it was robust and peppery. Sweet aftertaste on the draw however due to the state of the cigar it was unpleasant. Not recommended based on this one cigar. Bearing in mind that I only ordered one cigar it could be that I was unlucky. However as the cigar was

5 star quality knife. Looks good and feels good but the design is such that it does not make a good pipe knife. They have taken one of their standard designs of knife and rounded off the blade point. A tamper has been added to the end but it is too close to the knife body. This means that the tamper cannot reach far enough into the pipe bowl on most pipes without jamming against the pipe bowl rim. I would recommend it only for larger pipe bowls. Disappointing for the price.

I previously reviewed these and was fairly scathing. I stand by my words: if you open these up and crack straight on theyre a bit pants, in my opinion. BUT, after 6 months in the humi theyre now smoking very well. Not exactly Earth shatteringly good, but for the price you really cant complain too much. Ive not needed to pair it with a drink of any sort, such is the mellow and inoffensive flavour. If you want an easy going smoke that takes no effort then give these a bash. Ill be buying more, now I know how to treat them!

Bought one of these from the Turmeaus shop in Great Yarmouth (that shop is literally the only thing to make a stay at GY tolerable, a haven of sophistication in an otherwise grotty sea of kiss me quick nonsense). Aside from paying considerably more in store than they go for here, this was a very pleasant smoke. Slightly uneven burn that took a little touching up, but still very enjoyable. Ill be adding a box of 10 to my humi to properly evaluate. For science.
