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 […]

Rocky Patel The Edge Habano

Continuing through The Edge range of Rocky Patel cigars I am yet again impressed by the quality & presentation. Good size, firm pack & oily wrapper. This is the lightest shade of wrapper in the sampler pack I received and it was a very smooth smoke. This range is impressive regardless if marketed as a […]

Rocky Patel The Edge Corojo

I am trying the Toro today and am surprised by the size of this cigar. Not really a fan of the simplified band at the end but the quality overshone this little detail. Initially, Very spicy, Very intense and quite intimidating! Thankfully after the first third the cigar slightly mellowed. The spice moved into the […]

Joya De Nicaragua Clasico Torpedo

I was impressed with the presentation of this cigar. Well rolled and silky smooth to the touch with barely visible veins, class all the way! This was the first cigar produced from this brand, and during the United states Cuban embargo this was the only brand to be recognised as the official cigar of the […]
