Partagas Serie D No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by Arthur
Recently tried one of these and really enjoyed it. Found it to be a good strong slow smoke and so enjoyable for this, probably my number one at the moment!

I’m new smoking with a pipe.
It’s more of a skill and art form than many might imagine.
This has been one of my best tobaccos out of the three I bought.
It’s relaxing yet can stimulate your philosophical senses.
The taste isn’t overpowering and it stayed lit well, whereas my other tobaccos where a little more challenging being new to pipe smoking. This one I’d advise for someone new to using a pipe.
It also mixes very well with L&B Menthol normal cigarette tobacco which made a good companion and mixture for my tastes!

Very nice. Quite strong, but lots of dark flavours here, cocoa and pepper. Build quality and burn good also - only two ash falls in 25 mins! 5 Stars therefore.

I bought this cigar as a bit of an experiment. I had heard via youtube you could cut it in half and share or save for later.
This I did and what a great result. Smoked them both with an IPA during a chess game, outside in the South Hams. It has woody and leather overtones, some roundness. More of a medium smoke rather than a strong smoke. Great burn, easy draw, each half was approx 10-15 mins. These will travel with me as they are easy to look after along with their boxed stable mate. I will be buying more to share.

All in all a cracking little smoke and good value for money as I have found with all Oliva cigars so far. Good draw, even burn, a fairly strong aroma that does not mask the pleasant and delicate palate. Ideal with that mid-morning coffee.

H. Upmann Majestic Cigar - 1 Single
by Simon
After going through the ordeal of being retired on health grounds I haven decided to spend my time enjoying cigars, while my health alliows me. Both my late grandfather’s smoked pipes and used to give me the occasional King Edward cigar. I always found them bitter and put me off. On my 21st Birthday I was given a box of Havana’s that I remember enjoying at the time. Thanks to Callum’s (Chester’ shop) YouTube recommendation saying the H Upmann Majestic is a “anytime cigar” I ordered 3 to try. No bitterness at all and easy to smoke right down to the final half inch. A have a new hobby!!
