The construction on this cigar was nothing short of phenomenal, the draw was perfect, the burn was razor sharp and the ash held on for just over an inch at a time. I was taking long deliberate draws about once a minute and this cigar easily gave me 45 minutes of enjoyment, but Im quite a slow smoker because Im such a lightweight when it comes to nicotine. The flavours under the description are fairly accurate; a nutty-ceder from start to finish, quite subdued and quite palatable for a rookie smoker like me, on the retrohale the ceder came in much stronger but not so much that it overwhelmed me or burnt out my nostrils. The one I smoked this evening was probably more on the light-medium side, the flavours are pretty basic and there is no real complexity or development to speak of but for the price I feel like I got tremendous value and enjoyment. A great budget stick in my opinion.

Montecristo Linea 1935 Dumas
It’s not often that you get to try an entirely new cigar, especially one from a range as hotly anticipated as the Linea 1935. I am a fan of Montecristo in general and as I have matured as a cigar smoker, I have always found myself relying on the old stalwarts like the No2. Having tried the Open series and enjoyed them, but not ‘loved’ them, I was really looking forward to a chance to smoke a Linea 1935.
I ordered two of each of the Leylanda and Dumas and they were delivered a couple of weeks ago, by the team at CGars. I would normally put my cigars away in the humidor for at least 6 months before I smoke them, but the anticipation was killing me and I was unable to wait that long. I picked a Dumas, as this is the size closest in size to a robusto, my favoured smoke.
Construction is almost as good as it ever gets, a truly lovely wrapper, nut brown but with with an oily sheen and some darker depth to it. The cap was beautifully constructed and almost looks seamless from a distance, but when you get close you can see real precision to the workmans

Bought this a while back and let it sit in the humidor for about 6 months. Maybe this helped but honestly I couldn’t see the issues that the other reviewers have had! For under £5 it’s not a bad stick, I think there are far superior sticks for the money I.e Quorum shade grown series. Taste wise it was about a 4 or 5 certainly wasn’t unpleasant but again like other cigars at this price point suffered from being a bit of a meh experience. I’d say it’s a nice cigar to enjoy when walking the dog or mowing the lawn but other than that I think you could do a lot better for your cash!
4/10

Overall a very good stick! Few guys have mentioned construction issues, I had no such problems. Flavour wise, very mild in my opinion. I got a sweet tasting smoke that didnÂ’t linger on the tongue for long. I would certainly recommend this for someone looking to try a Cuban for the first time. Very easy going. Overall IÂ’d give this a 6/10 as for me it just lacked a little flavour and I think there are better sticks for similar money.

Quintero Petit Quintero Cigar - 1 Single
by Richard
Lovely cigar and stockingly good value. Mild and flavorsome, I will certainly be buying again.
Not a complex cigar but at this size and price is certainly punching above its weight.

Being only an occasional ciger smoker i have found these to be an excellent buy.I have tried the more expensive Havanas and found these to compare well---not too strong(no spinning head) with a really nice taste.I have smoked six recently and all burned well and evenly and did not have to relight once.All in all a good buy--A Havana cigar for liitle more than a pint of beer!!
