Jose L Piedra Conservas Cigar - 1 Single by Philippos

What a cigar! I got a good 45 minutes out of this stick. Goes ridiculously well with a Greek/Arabic/Turkish coffee. Smooth creamy flavours. Highly recommend.

Montecristo Media Corona Cigar - 1 Single by Robert

Having previously had an unpleasant experience with a couple of Media Corona’s (impossible draw, uneven burn) before, I tried one again the night before last as it had arrived as the mystery cigar as part of the C.gars monthly subscription. This time, I’m happy to report, there was a much improved outcome. The 44 x 90mm vitola is the smallest of the Cuban Montecristo family but certainly looks the part - it normally comes presented in a unique sliding tin of 5.

Chinchalero Novillo Fuerte Maduro - Box of 20 by Aaron

I loved this cigar. It was an even burn, a smooth draw, great construction and the flavour was deep and robust throughout with a peppery second third. I got a good hour out of it and I loved every minute of it.

Kendal Mixed No.8 CV (Formerly Cherry & Vanilla) Mixture Pipe Tobacco (Loose) by Patrick

More a sup than a smoke as it burns quite hot. Faintly tastes like Bakewell tart but more of a crowd pleaser. Tobacco is pretty decent.

Chinchalero Chicos Cigar - 1 Single by Philippos

For a cheap 20 to 30 minute smoke I found it quite enjoyable. Although harsh at the beginning, it developed well with an even burn.

Bought this as new to pipe smoking, Having tried its big brother the corn cob pipe I thought I would give this a try. Simular experience to the famous Corn Cob pipe. Great handy size.
