Blind Cigar Review: Epicurean | Carnavale Petite Corona

"I loved this cigar, one of the better ones I have reviewed in recent history. Everything from the flavors, transitions and the construction were great. I really liked this corona vitola, and I'm curious what other sizes it is offered in as I wouldn't mind one that lasts longer. I would recommend this to anyone assuming the price is right." -Emmett (rhetorik)

Blind Cigar Review: Hechicera | Maduro Robusto

"Overall, this was an excellent stogie, with my only complaint being that it was too bloody short! This really reminded me of an Illusione Rothschild. I smoke the regular ones regularly as the creator and owner of the brand has a B&M in Reno. If this is what it is, I'm stoked that they came out with a Maduro line!!!" -Robert (NavyPiper)

"Overall, the cigar was good. I would have preferred a bit more spice to go along with the other flavors. I would be interested to see what this cigar is and smoke it again to see how it smokes." -Wes (SosaCub4Life)

Blind Cigar Review: Crux | Passport Half Corona

"This is a good short smoke. Nothing too revolutionary, but definitely a good worthwhile lunch smoke. It had great promise and I would smoke it if time was in a pinch. The flavors were great to start and construction hampered it, but I don't think it's a bad cigar by any means." -Jack (Jack_H)

"Overall, the cigar was smoking pretty well in the beginning. There were interesting flavors and a good burn. But the final third really made it hard to give an overall rating, because this may have just been a one off error, and more than likely was." -Jerad (Cigar Federation)

Blind Cigar Review: Guayacan | Sabor de Estelí Corona

"If you are looking for a powerhouse cigar that offers sweet undertones and a smooth, crisp retrohale, this is for you. Definitely not for the weak at heart. This cigar is everything a smoker who enjoys full flavored smokes could ask for. Ready to smoke right when I got it, this cigar needs little rest to allow it to fully mature into an after dinner delight. Definitely grab some of these if you want to challenge your palate to a fistfight full of potential and destruction. Excellent cigar." -Steve (ThaGreatWazoo)

Blind Cigar Review – Revisited: Royal Gold | Gold Strike Churchill

"Overall, I did enjoy this cigar, but I'm not sure I would seek more. It was just a little boring and mild for my taste. Given the notes of toast, leather, spice and green color, I'm pretty sure this was a Cameroon wrapper, but not my favorite by any means. I would smoke another, but don't think I would buy one." -Emmett (rhetorik)

"I like almost everything about this cigar. It was different in all three phases, but the same notes were present in each part. They could each stand alone, but when smoked together, it was a great progression. I will smoke this cigar again, I just need to find out what it is first!" -Jack (Jack_H)

Blind Cigar Review: Emilio | Mia Dora Coronita

"This could easily become my go to morning smoke with a cup of coffee. The mild beginning transitioned to some bolder flavors nicely. Each third developed a distinct profile and stayed true. The leather really balanced the char and pepper, with the dark roast coffee at the end being a pleasant surprise." -Gregg (McGreggor57)
