RoMa Craft - CroMagnon EMH Fomorian
Green
Typical grassy, green tea notes, which is enjoyable and I guess what people want when they smoke this kind of cigar. Towards the end of the cigar I got a sudden mint note as well which fit nicely. Great cigar, pretty strong.
Robert Lewis - Tree Mixture 50g
Creamy Butter
Very creamy smoke, wonderful tanginess. I am not experienced enough to pinpoint out all of the tobaccos used, I ween that orange zest like taste is coming from the Virginias. It has an almost butter like taste which I have found in some cigars, and I absolutely love that!
Captain Earle's - Reflections 2oz
First English I really liked.
Sour, smokey, earthy, "incense" like quality, with an etherical background of sweetness. Despite having 12 different tobaccos in it, it is a very balanced blend, it isn't too complex, or my palate isn't that sensitive to the tastes. I don't find many English blends that I enjoy, but I will keep looking, this one is amazing. After smoking more than half of the cake, I broke it up and shoved it in a jar to age, as this blend has a lot of Virginia in it. A wonderful smoke.
Alec Bradley - Prensado Gran Toro
Excellent
This is a really good complex cigar. My boss gave me an aged one. It starts off with savory woodsy notes, evolves into a pecan, peanut like savoryness. Throughout the smoke there is a christmas spice, like nutmeg, and it continues until about the half way point. At the halfway point I begun tasting a butteryness, and all the way to the end all I could taste was savory butter. I have found that with many Corojo cigars, there is this butter flavor, and I absolutely love it. It made strong plumes of smoke, packed with flavor, it was definitely a strong cigar, but not "Diesel" levels of strong. I think anyone should try this cigar out, it is amazing!
My Father - Le Bijou 1922 Petit Robusto
Virginia Perique cigar?
This was a very strange but enjoyable cigar. As it reminded me of Virginia Perique pipe tobacco blends. With fruity notes, savory and peppery.
Punch - Diablo El Diablo
Powerful
This is one of the best cigars I have smoked. Full bodied and flavored. Strong like Diesel cigars. Wonderful aftertaste and it leaves you ready for bed. Perfect for your last day off at work.
Warped - Kings Stride 2oz
Creamy Cherry
Superb tobacco. It smells of dark fruit, an almost typical Va/Per blend. But the unique cigar addition dominates the pallet with creamy mouthfeel and flavor. The dominant fruity tin aroma is a background flavor. When smoking it near my sister, she said it smelt like cherries, where I did find out at that moment, there was a nice distinct cherry flavor. The aftertaste is fruity and creamy. I would say that sure, it's medium strength in regards to nicotine, but it's very full flavored and full bodied. The texture of the smoke is amazing. I will buy again when I get the spare change. Warped is one of the best pipe tobacco blenders out there!
El Rey Del Mundo - Oscuro Robusto Supremo
Amazing
My friend says that this blend is his all time favorite. And I can see why, thick taste of chocolate, slight cedar, slight leather. But at the halfway point and onwards, I tasted sweet dark chocolate and subtle coconut. Absolutely amazing cigar, definitely try it out!
Camacho - Corojo Toro
Butter
I have had an HC series Corojo, and the whole time it tasted like butter, I loved it. After getting one of these I experienced it yet again but amplified, buttery and savory. Around the halfway point it intensified. There were other notes, Christmas spices, subtle wood notes, but I loved that buttery note so much I focused on it the whole time. It is a fairly strong cigar, it put me to bed. Ultimately it was very enjoyable!
Founders - Hamilton Candela Toro
Excellent
One of the best candela cigars I have ever smoked. Tasted heavy notes of savory pistachios, with leather, and a subtle sweetness at the end. Gonna buy one for a friend.
Jake Wyatt - Lucid Interval Lancero
Excellent
Burned really well, produced lots of smoke, tasted roasted and salted cashews with green and black tea. Great cigar!
Savinelli - Janus 2oz
Very interesting!
Of the pipe tobacco that I have had so far, this was very exotic, with sour fruity smells and tastes. I guess this is the influence of the Orientals and Perique, I think anyone into pipe tobacco should try this blend! I first tried it at sunrise walking my Dog, and was pleasantly surprised and intrigued the whole time. I am excited to try more oriental blends.
Oliva - Serie V Double Toro
Excellent
Creamy nutty smoke, cool smoke, great draw, nice aftertaste. I wonder how it will age, don't have a big enough humidor, and I'm more interested in Connecticut's or Maduros that are aged. I think if you are looking for cigars this is a truly great one, bought it at a local vape shop. The flavor seems to increase as you smoke it.
Avo - Classic Maduro Robusto
Excellent
It was well rolled, burned well, the ash held together for nearly a third of the cigar. It tasted sweet the whole time. With notes of almost sweet oak, oatmeal, hints of anise, overall an incredibly enjoyable cigar. First Avo cigar I've ever smoked!
John Aylesbury - Sir John's Flake Virginia 50g
Sweet
Brother said that it smelled like marshmellows, and at some points it did taste like it! The flavor changes throughout the smoke, from sweet hay to malty. Excellent.
Romeo y Julieta - 1875 Bully
Good stuff.
Tastes of wood and peanuts from the start, halfway through I got oaky wood and leather with sweet savoryness. It was enjoyable after a long day, at the very end I got toast and chocolate taste, the end was my favorite part.
Macanudo - 1968 Robusto
It delivers its description
It was enjoyable, notes of wood and coffee. Medium in strength? full of flavor. More of a fan of creamy sweet cigars but this was nice.
Macanudo - Cru Royale Gigante
Try it!
Notes of chocolate, cedar, with some moments of leather; sometimes malty cereal..? Medium to strong nicotine at least to me. Smooth draw, but it burned awkwardly, likely a mistake on my part.
Macanudo - Inspirado Green Toro
Roasty
Not too strong, but I got flavors of roasted almond, toasted peanut, cedar wood, and a lot of savory'ness. It was excellent and enjoyable. I wanted to try out what I could get here since this was the first brand cigar I've ever bought myself. Definitely enjoyable for a new cigar smoker, rather huge though, took two breaks. Paired nicely with a dark ale or stout I drank. Give the cigar a shot yallsselves!
Macanudo - Tudor Cafe
Excellent
A friend told me about this cigar, saw it at a smoke shop and bought one. It's exactly as he described, creamy and woodsy, the flavor is consistent all the way through. I didn't feel any nicotine until like, finished with 5/8ths of it, so pretty mild. Once I try the few at that smoke shop I'll see what I can get on this website more often. Great cigar!
Borkum Riff - Original 1.5oz
Classic
My Grandpa used to smoke this, when I started smoking I wanted to try it. I will buy the other flavors with time. This one though was really enjoyable. Fruity and chocolatey notes, low nicotine (which if you don't like, add some Five Brothers in it! I wish I did!) It's enjoyable! It's classic! I'll get this again sometime in the future.
Old Dominion - Venus Clay Pipe
Wonderful pipe!
This was the first pipe I ordered from this website. I read about how clay pipes don't "ghost" and have a "neutral" bowl when it comes to how the tobacco tastes when smoked. With two clay pipes and two more coming, I'll dedicate each to a particular type of pipe tobacco; I'll have this pipe for aromatic blends (Not Lakelands, that'll have it's own clay pipe to taste). I have Briar pipes using the same logic, but when I get a blend I have never had before, or just wanting a quicker smoking session, I'll use these pipes. About this pipe, it functions very well. It might get hot, so I generally hold it at the stem. And the carved Goddess on it is perfect, I wish more clay pipes with beautiful figures were on them, might have to make my own some day! For a clay pipe it can cost double what other clay pipes are sold for here, but regardless I find it to be an excellent pipe for the reasons I described above!
Mac Baren - Vanilla Cream
Not much to say about the blend, it's my first review.
I am young and still foolish so take this review with grains of salt. I have bought this blend among many others as my first couple of tobaccos. I first smoked it in a clay pipe, as I've read that they give a neutral flavor, so I have clay pipes dedicated to new blends. And well as I first started smoking I smoked it too hard and too hot. However, months later, my dog and I walk through the alley in a misty damp night at 2am, everyone is asleep. I smoked a bowl of this in my briar, it was flavorful throughout the whole bowl, truly sweet Virginia. I walked with my dog and thought many things, tasting this sweet smoke. It was not overpowering at all in anything, nicotine, flavor, tongue bite, it was simply perfect for the context. Perfectly mild, wonderfully sweet, yet tobacco flavor still shines through. I'm young, old enough to buy beer, and I love beer. But it really does shock me how so little people engage in pipe tobacco smoking, what a pleasure, so much history and lore to learn! I'm glad that my immediate family and some close friends are getting into it, and I'm always happy to share with them. Try some of this, just buy one ounce and give it a shot, I hope you can get the same enjoyment out of it that I have!
Carl Gustav Jung: Pipe-Smoking Founder of Analytical Psychology- ► One of my biggest influences, inspirations, and birther of many of my ideals. I can't wait to try the pipe tobacco he smoked even if the recipe did change. The "Head Priest" of the Asatru Folk Assembly references him many times. I have recommended Jung to everyone I talk to where we get to such meaningful conversations. A legend, a "modern" man with the spirit of yore. Like Mark Twain, I like it when old men don't stop smoking. A friends Grandfather was told to stop smoking and he's in his 80s, but after some months he returned to smoking. Some people I have read are genetically more resistant to the effects of tobacco, I hope I am! I have a family history of smokers. Notably my Grandfather and even my Mother when she was younger. After commenting this I'll enjoy an aromatic, cheers to the enjoyers of this wonderful hobby!
