Excellent value for money well made and its British!
probably last a life time and useful as a pocket knife for other jobs once its been sharpened a little bit more.
A gorgeous smoke. No other word for it. Only the third Cuban cigar I`ve reviewed and given a five star rating to - cedar and a hint of nuts - a nicely complex and well behaved medium cigar with full strength and good construction. If I was stranded on a desert island, a case of these and Joanna Lumley - and you could leave me there.

I smoked this in the afternoon sun with a coffee. Firstly I was surprised by the sweet taste that came from the wrapper. Being used to Cubans this was different and very enjoyable. The coffee flavour was mild but there in the first third. Pleasant overall and it devolved almost chocolate flavours towards the end. Unfortunately my cigar had a small hole in the wrapper just above the cap which affected the draw and burn (it is worth mentioning that this was NOT pest damage, more than likely caused by a course bit of filler that broke through) . If it wasnt for this Id have given it 4 stars. Smokers who enjoy Cubans may not like this as it doesnt have the same depth of flavour but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I would recommend this cigar to others who are looking for something a bit different.
This cigar most certainly packs a punch. This was an excellent reccomendation from the staff of cgarslt as a substitution for my favorite Por Larranaga. Both the taste and anroma of this cigar assault the senses with many complex elements... coffee, cedar, tannin, .... A c
A definite taste of cedar here, mixed with fragrant spice. I found its aroma appealing even if not exactly complex. A good burner, if a little tight and uneven a couple of times.
