There are some really distinctive flavours in this. First cigar I’ve got chocolate from and it has a taste extremely similar to strongbow blackcurrent. I guess it’s a little bit like a chocolate bar with raisins in or something similar (dark dried fruit) . It also has a real dark wood flavour to it. For me personally it was a little too on the strong side however I could still apreaciate the flavours .

Was looking forward to smoking this appealing cigar. Well made, good wrapper, drew well, but flat, dry and muddy flavour.
First Davidoff I have smoked in years and on this experience would never smoke again, but as one of the worlds best selling brands, they cant all be this bad so will try another size and blend. Not worthy of the Churchill name - 10/10 on the Yuch scale Im afraid. Writing this review the next day, I can still taste it.... always a bad sign.

Surprised how bad this was, very harsh taste, very hard to draw and keep lit. Went out 3 times (smoking too quickly if anything) and gave up.

Loved this cigar.
First third I got espresso, earthy, cedar notes and through the nose a nice peppery tang.
Second third came some notes of grapefruit and aniseed along with the afore mentioned.
The final third it became really creamy/oily with small tastes of dark bitter chocolate.
Great construction and burn. Will be buying these again.

Regius Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Stuart
My first impressions of the Regius corona cigar is a well constructed cigar with a tight roll. A little niggle about the cap, it was too small! After cutting the rest of the cap peeled away. After lighting I noticed the draw was loose and supplied a sufficient amount of smoke. The taste in the first third was of a sweet nutty flavour, slightly peppery which was pleasant. The second third was of woody notes. Half way through it started to side burn which I had to touch up with a lighter which led to the first ash fall, closer inspection it came apparent that there was a bit of an air gap which explained the side burn, easily corrected and a consistent smoke afterwards. The final third earthy notes came through with a slight sweetness with two more ash falls. Overall this was a subtle smoke with a good burn throughout with the one issue, wasnt over powering in the slightest. Id definitely buy this cigar again for my humidor especially for the price.

Oliva Serie V Belicoso Cigar - 1 Single
by Gregory
Beautiful from start to finish.
Im not an everyday smoker, maybe one a week two if im being naughty, so its always good to have a smoke that is good from start to finish.
The beauty had a lovely even burn throughout, produced a lovely amount of smoke without being too much, the flavours were subtle and enjoyable. I enjoyed it with a nice coffee, but would pair nicely with a good whiskey of your choice. Maybe a Bowmore No. 1, or Jura Seven barrels.
Lastest around 45 minutes with a leisurely drag, long enough for my wife to come looking for me in the shed
My only complaints are it had to end and I only bought the one.
