Arturo Fuente 858 Anniversary 47 x 158

As I have mentioned many times before I really like a nice dark wrapper, the pack was even but there was a slight abrasive feel, like a mild sandpaper. The smell from Fresh is nutty and slightly of hay. Anything nutty is a plus! From the first few draws I knew this was something I […]

MUWAT Review 5/5 Bait fish 4 x 44

This is the last of the MUWAT range that I have acquired and I have to say I have been impressed! The Baitfish is a Great little cigar, one of the lighter wrappers in the range that has a very faint smell from fresh of hay. The smell of hay is common but […]

MUWAT Review 4/5 Night Crawler 4.5 x 52

Now this is a good looking cigar, one of the darker wrappers in the series and definitely a size I prefer at 4.5 x 52. Great smell of cocoa from fresh & this taste was also present for the cold draw. I have probably mentioned this before but I much prefer using a punch. I […]

MUWAT Review 3/5 MUWAT 7×70

First of all the size of this cigar is ridiculous! This is easily the largest cigar I have smoked and it was very intimidating. Just like the Presidente there was a strong smell of chocolate, sweet cocoa with a slight hint of vanilla. The cigar lit very easily, the draw was light with a […]

MUWAT Review 2/5 +11 Robusto 5.5 x 52

Another perfectly made cigar with such an amazing smell of sweet cocoa, just love it! This wrapper is considerably lighter in colour than the others in the range and quite veiny in appearance. The first draws were a little bitter, nothing overbearing and after ten minutes or so started to mellow. Now this could […]

MUWAT Review 1/5 Presidente

It’s all about the M.U.W.A.T for the next 5 reviews. I am interested to see what influence the size of the cigar has to do with the taste. So lets go…. This range of cigars is a collaboration between Drew estate and Joya de Nicaragua. Both these brands rate very highly with myself and […]

La Aurora 107 Robusto

First of all this cigar celebrates 107 years in the industry which is an amazing achievement. A well made cigar with a very firm pack, no soft spots but large veins throughout. Earthy scent from fresh which continued into taste for the first third. Smoke tasted a little dry, mainly of earth and tobacco. The […]

Vegueros Entretiempos

First impressions were not impressive. Very soft pack quite spongy with no defining scent from fresh. Very easily lit with loads of smoke which was a bonus for such a light draw. The cigar started to go out quicker than most, smaller intervals between draws were required which kept it a little hot for my […]

Rocky Patel The Edge Maduro

The Maduro is the last member of my “The Edge” Sample pack. This is the darkest wrapper for the cigars I received and the appearance is very impressive, perfect firm pack and oily wrapper. Like the Sumatra there was a hint of pepper, mainly in heat than taste which I prefer, not a fan of […]

Rocky Patel The Edge Sumatra

Now this version of the EDGE is very different to the Habano & Corojo! Saying that just like the Habano and Corojo the quality is amazing! Very firm pack with only a few raised veins but overall really amazing. Pre-light scent was faintly of hay, lighting was flawless and the draw had good resistance. I am surprised with […]
