Blind Cigar Review: Nestor Miranda Collection | Corojo Coffee Break

"Even though this cigar was a mild/medium taste, the woody flavors had a nice balance throughout. There were flavors of oak and cherry wood with a nice campfire aroma coming from the smoke. The after-taste was not over powering and left a nice taste behind. Even though a bitter flavor showed, it did not come until almost at the end. Overall I am very pleased and would love to enjoy this one again." -Eric (smalls29)

Blind Cigar Review: Caldwell | Hit and Run Corona Gorda

"I was very surprised by this stick. After the light aromas on the prelight, the cigar was full of great flavors. It was very cubanesque from the look and vitola to the flavor. I would love to smoke this in the morning with a cup of coffee. The stick had a couple of faults but was easy to overlook because the flavor was so good. I even nubbed this thing all the way down." -Matt (Mattehh)

Blind Cigar Review: Crowned Heads | Luminosa Petite Corona

"Have you ever lit up a cigar with no preconceived notions, and after the fist puff you say to yourself, or out loud "Damn, this is nice?" well I did and that same thought stayed with me the entire smoke. Just a great amount of cream/honey and sweetness. This would be an excellent first cigar of the day with or without coffee. My only complaint was it was so short, but maybe that was the maker's intention, to keep you coming back for more. I personally would like to keep these in my humi, for when I need that perfect smoking experience. " -Mickey T. (irratebass)

Blind Cigar Review: Drew Estate | Undercrown Sun Grown Gran Toro

"This was such an enjoyable cigar. It was not a powerhouse, and it was not overly complex, but it was flavorful all the way. I enjoyed each puff, and the sweet/spice mix was really a nice combo at the end of the day. It also looked beautiful, and had no performance issues, so no extra work on the part of the smoker in order to enjoy the cigar. This one would have a place in my humidor. " -Matthew T.

Blind Cigar Review: HR | Blue Petite Edmundo

"Really good cigar. Solid core flavors, great initial flavor blast from the closed foot, and some interesting transitions along the way. There were a few minor construction issues, it wasn't tremendously nuanced and it got a little flat toward the end, but there's still good stuff happening here. I'd smoke a ton of these. " -John I.

"This cigar kept me interested by the transitions and flavors. The sweetness was a great flavor. It is not an added sweetness but more of a aged tobacco sweetness. The other flavors were a nice accompaniment. " -Matt (Mattehh)

"This cigar started very mild and while I was hoping for some change, it remained mild and pretty flavorless throughout. While the cigar's appearance, draw, and construction is very good overall, it lacked in flavor and depth. I do not think I would recommend this cigar." -David F. (David F.)

Blind Cigar Review: Dunhill | Aged Maduro Short Robusto

"This is a fairly short-lived cigar, easy smoking in under an hour, and probably just over a half hour smoke for most people. Each third had a distinct change of flavors that could easily be detected without looking. I found myself enjoying this one, a lot. But, it could use some glue. The tendency for the wrapper to unravel kept me distracted and, ultimately forced me to score the cigar lower than I would have liked based on flavor alone. That said, I'd give it another go in hopes that it'd stay together." -Isaac M. (The Nothing)
