An amazing smoke, small but packs a punch 👊🏽
They taste so good I can't get enough of them

Absolutely beautiful looking cigar, slightly oily to the touch with a stunning mocha coloured, smooth wrapper, combined with the beautiful looking bands makes for a really understated but classy looking cigar. Incredibly packed, feels heavy in the hand, quite a tight draw, initially cut with a single V, I needed a second V to open it up, even then smoke output is thin...needs 2 or 3 draws to get decent amounts. Very smooth, slightly sweet, slightly creamy upfront followed by roasted almond, black pepper and some gentle leather and coffee. Ash retention is around an inch or so and quite flakey, burn is slightly uneven but no corrections needed. Amount of draws needed for decent amount of smoke leads to slight overheating. Decent enough, not sure I'd have another.

Backwoods Purple Cigars - Pack of 5
by Stuart
The Backwoods Purple Cigars are a real treat. I really enjoyed these, they’ve got a lovely, sweet berry flavour that makes them stand out from the rest of the Backwoods range. They’re easy to light, smooth to smoke, and don’t need any special storage, which is always a bonus.
My wife enjoys them too, and she took a pack to a family party recently. Everyone who tried one, mostly non-smokers, said they loved them, which says a lot about how approachable they are. A fun, flavourful smoke that’s great for sharing and always goes down well. Definitely one I’ll be keeping stocked up on.

An excellent cigar both visually and in taste and extremely good value for money, medium strength, good draw, with nuances of orange peel lasts over an hour, highly recommended, all Curivari cigars use Cuban seed tobacco to mimic the taste of Cuban cigars, there is a size to serve every occasion

Taste of a premium cigar, lovely little cigars
I will stick to those for a while, if you want something for everyday smoke look no further..

The La Invicta Nicaraguan Panatela wasn’t really for me. It’s a nice-looking, long cigar for the price but the flavour was far too bitter and strong from the start. I gave it a fair go, managed about a third, but eventually binned the rest. Even the more affordable Hamlets taste better to my palate.
Maybe it would suit someone who prefers a heavier, punchier smoke, but I just found it harsh and unpleasant. A shame, really, as it looked promising, but this one’s off my list for future buys.
