San Cristobal La Punta Cigar - 1 Single
by Austin
Delicious after a light lunch. I hadnt tried a La Punta for years, so sampled one at Turmeaus lounge. Well aged and covered in bloom over its light and slightly rustic wrapper. The draw was easy with just a little resistance, but the smoke remained cool and delicious with a good burn. The first half was light-medium bodied and built up slightly in flavour also, with beautifully balanced waves of light roasted coffee, honey, toasted almond and soft pepper spice. The second half became much more medium bodied developing an oaky woodiness, dry grass and herbal notes with a small burst of spice at the end. Smoked it to my fingertips. Often overlooked, but these can be excellent and age beautifully.

Beautiful cigar - so surprising!
Great draw and smoke output - much more complex than expected - walnuts and spice on the retrohale - great flavours of chocolate and leather - balanced and meaty! Please give this at least a month in your humidor before you smoke it and do away with that box it comes in. One of my top 5 cigars ;-)

Cuban Short Pleasures Sampler - 4 Cigars
by Daniel
I have recently smoked the last of the sticks from this sampler. I found that the small club Corona and the divinos were both outstanding smokes that I enjoyed every second of. The no 5 and the siglo1, however, I found rather disappointing.
Both had a very tight draw and the effort needed to smoke them is my lasting memory of them. The Cuaba was the pick of the bunch for me.

Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by biresh
i wasnt sure what to expect from this little stick. once i lit and started to puff. it was simply amazing. burn issue started in the first third but it corrected it self which was nice. lots of pepper spice and creamy at times. there was slight bitterness but it was enjoyable. over all its a great cigar.

I actually prefer these to the Nostrano del Brenta Il Doge. For me the flavours are a little more full and well defined making this my new favourite Italian offering from CGars. Flavour is consistent, warm notes of leather and seasoned wood, fresh hay and loam. Hints of nutty caramel transform into Italian coffee and quality tobacco. This is a cigar to kick-back with, feet up, after a good meal and toasting your toes by an open fire.

H. Upmann Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Robert
Decent short smoke if youÂ’re looking for something of Cuban origin and quality. ItÂ’s size meant it didnÂ’t have the time to develop any complex flavour profile but was still enjoyable. Went well with a double expresso.
