factory smokes sun grown churchill

This is the third factory smoke I have tried from Drew Estate and by far the largest! This is one soft cigar, my storage is on point so let’s see where this goes. There is not much scent from fresh maybe a little sweet hay on the cold draw which is incredibly light. Upon lighting […]

Mr Robot fumador

What’s your favourite vitola? I would have to say the robusto is right up there and this is a damn fine example! Since the origins of this cigar are undisclosed I have to take a random guess that this is a Habano wrapper. It has a rich smell from fresh a “cuban” type taste once […]

Rojas KSG Red

Today I had the pleasure of trying the Rojas KSG Red, also known as the King of the Small Gauge. As a fan of Lanceros, I was initially surprised to see that this cigar was slightly bigger in gauge than what I was used to, but I was eager to give it a try nonetheless. […]

Socrates 458

Back to back with the short and stout; 4 x 60 Ciclope last week and now the Socrates 4 x 58. Both these cigars are made by Curivari and I have to say they look nearly identical, but this one has a Mexican San Andrés maduro wrapper. Once lit you’ll be inundated with thick and […]

CURIVARI CICLOPE 460

I usually feel ripped off smoking a small cigar, but sometimes they last longer than expected. Especially with a ring gauge of 60! I used a punch and the cold draw is ultra light; even when lit the draw is still light but produces an amazing amount of smoke! This Nicaraguan wrapper is very dark […]

honchos

Let’s see if this Honcho is in charge. This dark, oily and veiny wrapper topped with an amazing band is a sight to behold. The smell from fresh is a little barnyard with a lot of minerals thrown in. Lighting up greets you with thick, chewy smoke with a white pepper finish. I remember the […]

Rocky Patel. Patel Bros Robusto

It’s been awhile so I thought I would go back to my roots and see what RP has for me. Plus it’s time to break in the new Scarface ashtray from Revibed Vinyl. I know RP has many different blends but it just tastes like a RP. This dark brown wrapper is a little less […]

Dunkin donuts

I’ll say it again, Connecticut shade wrappers are quickly becoming my favourite. This smooth connecticut shade wrapper has a very faint but sweet scent from fresh. The first third is as subtle as it smells with a sweetness lingering on the finish. The smoke however is a little wispy and powdery. The second third bought […]

Kings county

This is a beast of a cigar with an impressive shimmering halo band! This cigar is a status symbol, if you’re a bit of a show off this cigar is for you. The pack is solid but the draw resistance is spot on once lit. First flavours are of hay and liquorice. This is a […]

Killer bee

Sweet hay and unripened plums. What an intro! Salt and minerals are quick to show with a faint hint of white pepper. The finish is long and consists of a mix of metal and minerals. This cigar smokes like a dream: great draw, resistance, and an even better smoke output. Stacking dimes like a pro! […]
