La Flor Dominicana El Carajon Cigar - 1 Single
by GENEVIEVE
Wow! What a great value cigar this is for the price! The wrapper is one of the best I have experienced - very robust and contributes to an even burn with almost two inches of ash before it departed. Well packed and a cool smoke, its surprisingly sweet without being at all sickly. Wonderful flavours of toasted almonds a lightly burnt/biscuity caramel, reminiscent of those little stroopwafels one can enjoy with a coffee all topped off with a light pepperiness. As you progress, youre rewarded with additional undertones of chocolate and a touch of vanilla. Word of warning though if you do not smoke full-bodies cigars often...this was a little deceptive in that despite being full of flavour, for me it seemed lighter than my go-to cubans (Romeo Y Julietta puritos) but the strength caught me a little off guard at the end...glad I was stretched out on the sofa! All in all a very enjoyable way to spend 50 minutes and would definitely recommend.

I really did not expect a lower budget pipe to be made to such a high quality. Nice big bowl and a great texture creates a great atmosphere and to be able to say it was delivered in 2 days is amazing. Highly recommend.

H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Thomas
Draw is very easy, if anything lacking a little resistance. Aroma and smoke were impeccable. Slight issue with construction as the outer leaf unwrapped but nothing more than you would expect in terms of the inconsistency of a typical Cuban hand-rolled cigar and did not detract from the enjoyment. Floral, herby and earthy start, leading into a richer, creamier final third. Hint of spice. Will definitely remain near the top of my go-to thirty minute smoke. Top.

Recieved as part of the monthly subscription. Not fantastic and deffo not worth 20£. Very loose ash and draw wasnt great. Could have been a bad stick but as my only time trying have to go by it. Wouldnt go for it again.

I had the rum flavour of this cigar a couple of nights ago, which was quite pleasant without being anything special. This smoke, though, was a hugely disappointing experience. From the moment I took it out of the cellophane it had a nasty smell to it. The only thing I can compare it to is a urinal. I thought this may have been in my head but others seemed to agree. It had a very tight draw and it burnt unevenly. Im still learning the technique as this is a new hobby to me, so I wasnt sure if it were down to me smoking it incorrectly, but reading the review below it seems these problems werent unique to me. One to be avoided.
