Ive had one of these cigars sitting in my humidor for a couple of months. With great expectations from all of the positive reviews I decided to settle down to enjoy it today. What an anticlimax it was! The initial lighting was as good as expected but I struggled beyond belief to keep it lit and had to re-light a few times.
In the few puffs where it was on song I could certainly taste the sweet nuttiness reported by others and the justification of their positive reviews. For me, the whole experience was marred by the poor burn. I appreciate Im fairly new to the world of cigars but this was my first experience of such a battle to enjoy a smoke!
Sorry Hoyo, I would like to give you a more positive score but cant in this instance.

Trinidad Reyes Cigar - 1 Single

This cigar was very disappointing. I had issues keeping it lit and the draw was tough. I got some nice pepper notes towards the end but overall I found it very bland. The Larutan Drew Estate is a much better alternative.

Cohiba Shorts Cigar - 1 Single

A very nice little smoke. Smooth on the throat. A smooth tobacco taste with a little spice.
Light to medium in strength.
20 - 30 minutes smoking time. Better if smoked gently. Strong, consistent puffing makes the cigar hot and soft because of the small size.
A very nice lingering after taste that doesn’t last all night. Provides a really happy, light, head buzz for approx 1 hour afterwards. I will be buying a box of 10 for my humidor.
A lot of quality for a small price.

This is a light smoke, can retrohale the whole draw and it doesnÂ’t burn your sinuses. Great subtle flavour. I found the draw to be perfect. The only issue I had was the construction. It was burning at a 45 degree angle but no matter how often I tried it would just not correct. IÂ’m gonna try another and if it burns right I will get a box. Keep them for morning smokes. I will give it 5 stars as the uneven burn could have been the product of an uneven light. I was being nagged at the time!

Starts off rather nice but I found the blend a bit harsh and bitter beyond the mid point / final third... perhaps due to the smaller ring gauge? Smoked well, no issues with draw or construction... but for the money i think the Bolivar Petit Corona is a better stogie if you want a full bodied Havana at roughly the same price and size.

I bought this as my first humidor and it’s been excellent. Holds humidity really well and has a nice tight seal that you have to push closed. Would definitely recommend this product as a great starting point for someone getting into the cigar world.
