Guantanamera Cristales 41 x 150

Ok so it’s getting close to Halloween so time to try something scary… A machine-made cigar! Well at least its Cuban. The band is average to say the least, the wrapper is the definition of bumpy but I have read some good reviews so I am not letting this bother me 🙂 Lets get straight […]

The Wise Man Maduro Robusto 5.5 x 50

It doesn’t take a wise man to see this is a quality cigar!! From the firm pack to the toothy wrapper this cigar really stands out as something special. The cold draw has great resistance but surprisingly little taste. I am a fan of full-bodied cigars but not the biggest fan of intense pepper, and […]

Rocky Patel The Edge Candela Toro 6 x 52

Ever since I learnt of their existence I was keen to try a candela cigar, now I am a big fan of Rocky Patel so I thought I would start with the Edge candela. The striking green really stands out and also accentuates the leaf pattern of the wrapper. The pack is quite solid but […]

The Tabernacle Broadleaf Toro

Instantly you’ll notice the quality of this cigar, firm to the touch with a flawless Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. The cap was placed meticulously and such a regal band, I’m impressed. A faint smell of coco and hay was what was first noticed, the cold draw was very light with hints of barnyard. Once lit full […]

Macanudo 1968 Corona 42 x 147

First thing you’ll notice is just how bumpy this cigar is, the veins are quite aggressive nearly to the point of bursting. There is a very interesting smell from fresh, Sulfur like you just lit a match. This scent entices me as much as it scares me. Consensus states this brand is synonymous with mildness, […]

Plasencia Reserva Original Nesticos

I was looking for a smaller cigar to enjoy while watching the Moto GP. This size looked perfect and the fact that it’s made with 100% certified organic tobacco sealed the deal. The bands are what first drew me to this cigar, nice clean and simple but not a fan when they are placed near […]

Catrina De Mi Vida Maduro

As soon as I picked up this cigar it was apparent that it was infused. If you had to guess the item from scent alone 9/10 would say a bouquet of flowers. The roll of this cigar was just as beautiful as the smell with a very smooth chocolate maduro wrapper, exquisite band and triple […]

Flor De Copan Belicosos

The presentation of this cigar is simply stunning. Prestige band followed by a cedar sheath. The wrapper feels like satin with next to no veins. Now don’t be too quick to judge a book by its cover because this cigar is all sparkle and no substance. I truly don’t know if this cigar had a […]

Honduras Vintage Toro

Be warned this cigar review might be a little biased. My little sister picked up a box of these cigars for me while she was in Honduras so I’m going to enjoy them regardless. Decent presentation for this Toro size cigar, wrapper was smooth with only a few small veins. The single cap was a […]

La Aurora Untamed Robusto 50 x 127

As you can see this is something very different from La Aurora. The band sold me so let’s hope that looks aren’t deceiving. Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper ticks all the boxes for me, dark & oily with a solid rustic feel that shows real authenticity. Dark chocolate with spice for the cold draw. After twenty minutes […]
