Leaf Supreme, I’ll be the judge of that. Privada’s right on the money with the pre-light scent of died fruit and earth. It kind of reminds me of a fruit mince tart which I just love at Christmas time. This cigar has a closed foot, well nearly. I really like how this influences flavour changes […]
Read More AGANORSA Leaf SupremeThis is the first Davidoff cigar I’ve smoked, and it’s true they’re just so classy. I can just tell this cigar is going to be mild and refined. The wrapper is smooth with a fresh scent of barnyard. I love the two white and gold bands; they really set it off as something special. Once […]
Read More Davidoff Grand Cru No.3The makeup of this cigar is impressive; ready… It uses a La Meca Ecuador habano Grade 1 dark rosado wrapper and Mexican Matacapan Negro de temporal binder over five different filler tobaccos: Nicaraguan GK Condega C-SG seco, Nicaraguan Pueblo Nuevo criollo viso, Nicaraguan La Joya Estelí C-98 viso, Nicaraguan ASP Estelí hybrid ligero and broadleaf […]
Read More Sobremesa El Americano 6″ x 52This is the first Oliva cigar I have smoked. Straight out of the box it looks damn good. Perfect looking wrapper! Nice and smooth with an oily sheen but a little on the soft side. The smell from fresh is alluring, sweet milk chocolate and leather. The first taste you get once lit is […]
Read More OLIVA SERIE V NO.4I’m a big fan of elaborate cigar bands and this example is epic. This cigar ticks all the boxes for regal presentation with great font for the dual bands, and a silk foot band! Oh yeah, it also rates quite highly with Cigar Aficionado so it’s got that going for it also! Construction is on […]
Read More My Father Le Bijou 1922 Grand Robusto (5 1/4″ x 52)Smoky BBQ scent from fresh, reminiscent of the KFC Flying Pig but not as intoxicating. I really like the size of this cigar with its smooth chocolate brown wrapper, and of course the pig tail is a nice touch. The cold draw has light resistance and a slight hint of hay. Upon lighting white pepper […]
Read More Liga Privada Unico Serie Ratzilla 6 1/4 x 46First impression, very soft pack. Cold draw of natural tobacco and wood with very light resistance. Now I think they missed the mark with this black and copper band, it’s trying to be classy but comes across as tacky so a fail for this one. I had a choice of four different wrappers for this […]
Read More Casa Turrent Origins Series (Miami) Double Robusto 139 x 54Sweet chocolate and leather emanate from this marvellously toothy wrapper! Take note, this cigar cuts straight to the chase unleashing full flavour immediately, followed by immense clouds of hot cinnamon pepper and spice finished with sweet cedar. Smoke is thick, strong, and so very spicy! To the point where as soon as the it touches […]
Read More The Tabernacle Havana Seed CT #142 Robusto 5 x 50Not sure what I think of the diagonal band, lacks masculinity, not that that matters for a 6″ x 60! Milk chocolate and gold is always a good look, Pack was a little on the soft side with a medium cold draw resistance, no notable flavours from fresh. Surprisingly once lit smoke output was limited […]
Read More Fratello Oro Gordo 6 x 60I’ve smoked a number of cigars with cedar sheaths before, but not one where the band is wrapped around the sheath alone. Another first for me is this cap, It’s completely flat! I’ve never seen that before but it’s great for the perfect punch. Sweet cocoa and hay for the fresh draw which is incredibly […]
