I really love the gold on white band, but I find the name “insert factory code here” a bit uninspired. While I couldn’t identify a distinct scent from the fresh cigar, the cold draw revealed sweet cedar notes. Upon lighting, my first impression was of a smooth and powerful cedar smoke bomb, producing thick clouds […]
Read More Rocky Patel LB1What’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 […]
Read More Mr Robot fumadorI’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 […]
Read More Dunkin donutsThis 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 […]
Read More Kings countyThere’s a lot of Hype behind this cigar. It pretty much goes “Great flavours, shit construction” The San Andres wrapper is dark and dripping! It is so dark and has so much sheen it looks wet. Thankfully, it is not. The cold draw has very light resistance, now the paranoia sets in. Luckily the draw […]

Cutting the cap and lighting greets you with the unmistakable flavour of cedar; the smoke output is great right from the start also. Even though […]
Read More twin pinesI’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 46Is there such a thing as too much cedar? First impression is an unmistakable taste of Weetbix and honey for the cold draw. Now you wouldn’t expect to be surprised by the taste of cedar, but this cigar seems to be infused with its flavour and it’s all dominating! A sweet finish accompanies each draw followed […]
Read More Chateau Fuente Queen B Torpedo 50 x 139This cigar is rock solid! You really need a guillotine to cut this cap, it’s a seriously solid cigar! Once finally cut, dark chocolate and peanuts greet you for the cold draw. A surprisingly light draw with a slight hint of sweetness from the start; ten minutes in we are straight to full flavour and […]
