Blind Cigar Review: AVO | Classic Belicoso

"Flavor profile notwithstanding, this was a smooth and easy smoke. If you're a fan of floral cigars, with a simple expression that you don't have to think a lot about, this could make a nice Sunday morning cigar with a cup of tea and a good book. But it's a miss for me." -Vance T. (Vance)

Blind Cigar Review: Aguila | Sublime (Revisited)

"A very solid cigar until the final third. A great draw with nice smoke production and good floral and cedar flavors that transitioned into a nice earthy blend. Sadly it loaded up quite a bit in the final third ruining the profile. I would definitely try this cigar again and see if not having to touch it up would solve the final third bitterness." -Lauren S.

Blind Cigar Review: Montecristo | Línea 1935 Dumas

"Overall, a great-tasting medium-bodied cigar. However, the flaws in the construction and the tighter draw made this not as favorable as I had hoped. Not that it was bad, it just had so much more potential! " -John A. (Bostoneo)

Blind Cigar Review: Gurkha | Real Toro

"This was a good cigar overall. Had the draw been less cumbersome, it would have been a treat. Nice transitions in flavor while maintaining much of the original flavors at the beginning with just a couple of additions and subtractions. I would buy this cigar in the hopes that the next one would not have the same multi-puffs necessary on the draw." -Randy B. (randobush)

Blind Cigar Review: Southern Draw | Manzanita Toro

Blind Cigar Review: Southern Draw | Manzanita Toro

"I really enjoyed this experience. If there were no draw issues at the beginning I would have been even more enchanted with it. There were enough sweetness and shifting of core flavors that I never found myself bored and towards the middle, I found the smoke became almost honeyed in texture. I certainly recommend picking one up and could see myself keeping a fiver on hand." -Alan (Eulogy)

Blind Cigar Review: Espinosa | Warzone Short Churchill

"This was a great cigar. It was mild to medium in strength which gave me some nice cream mixed with floral and chocolate flavors with a hint of nuts here and there, but mostly on the finish. I would definitely smoke this again. " -Mickey T. (irratebass)

Blind Cigar Review: Padilla | Finest Hour Oscuro Robusto

"I really enjoyed this cigar, specifically the way it evolved. It was like a meal, starting with a smoky, peppered steak and ending with a warm cinnamon-dusted butter cake. This could easily become a daily smoke for me depending on price point." -Vance T. (Vance)

Blind Cigar Review: El Artista | Puro Ambar Robusto

"For a cigar that looked odd from the get-go and had a highly unpleasant cold draw, it performed very well and acted overall like an “ordinary” cigar. Hooray! I liked the portfolio of flavors presented by this cigar throughout the smoking experience and, coupled with the excellent construction, I’d certainly smoke it again. " -Matt Cade (CadeTNCC)

"I enjoyed this cigar. It felt solid, looked solid, and tasted great. Floral and roasted flavors I felt ran the show but a little pepper and citrus were in there enough to keep you interested." -Jake P. (Jake P.)
