| I enjoyed this cigar and appreciate the opportunity to try it. Smoking it too fast punishes you with some burnt flavors (and the wind could have had an effect on this as well.) Dunbarton makes great c... Read More | |||

| The cigar was good, but it was a lot less than I was expecting from DTT. It seemed like a smooth medium strength and flavor cigar that didn't really transition very much, which is OK IMO. What t... Read More | |||

| Oliva/ Studio Tabac Nub 460 Habano | ![]() |

| So this one has been in my humidor for 6 1/2 years and I'm hoping it aged well. Nice toothy wrapper with a slight sheen. It gives off a nice tobacco aroma prelight. Cannon feels solid, cap is good and took a punch well. The draw is very open and has a sweet wood note prelight. The opening is peppery with a burnt sugar hint, some wood and a touch of cream. The spice fades going into the second third but doesn't disappear and the profile becomes dominated with wood and tobacco notes. The spice comes back strong in the last third, the wood is still around along with a espresso note. Burn was good, the line got a little wavy but self corrects. Smoke production was good. Ash held to the halfway point, was light gray and solid. Decent enough smoke. | |

| For a small guage cigar, I really enjoyed this. I've smoked 3 now... The aroma and on the front of my tongue is where I pick up hints of sweet bread or cookies. It is not something you would expect from such a small vitello. I'm on the hunt to find the perfect hot tub cigar... something that can be smoked in 30 minutes, but has flavor. I'll take this over the T52 Liga so far. They all smoked consistent from the beginning to the end, though the second one tunneled a bit. This took a little longer than what I would want, but for the quality, I'll take it. High quality in a small package for sure. I've got some more small guage cigars to try so we'll see. | |

| One of the best Ecuadorian Connecticut's out there in this price range, super smoke, a cool billowing producer with consistency. The 55 x 5.5 BP is my favorite Vitola. | |
| Aging Room Solera Sun Grown Fanfare | ![]() |
| By: ElCid1986 (11/04/2025 04:07 PM) | |
| Sun grown wrapper with Dominican filler and binder made for a very smooth profile. Background on blend states this process ages the tobaccos together to get a harmony of blend and it did all blend well. Nutty with a hint of maple syrup and medium flavor profile. Construction was spot on with perfect draw and burnline throughout. Black pepper spice, but with a natural sweetness also. Overall a very solid smoking experience. | |
| Drew Estate Liga Privada T52 Coronet | ![]() |
| By: cnyCigarGuy (11/03/2025 01:07 PM) | |
| Can't go wrong with this tin.. I wish there was less leather and cedar in this quicky and more of a creamy smoke like some of Liga's other offerings. I'll have to try the other tin they produce and revisit this. The smoke was good for about 20 minutes. The end burned hot. I had one unravel on me, which is disappointing. Also, the humidification packet inside was dried out, so I had to put them in my humidor to get them back to a good level of humidity. | |

| Listed as a medium-full body cigar, I expected it to be a little spicier. The construction was perfect. The burn line was even throughout the smoke. The draw was great. I get almonds on the palate with a hint of coffee. The smoke was consistent throughout. I agree with those that think this is an everyday smoke. Consistent, perfect for morning, afternoon, or dessert. | |

| Enjoyed this boutique cigar at the Dawg House in Williamsburg, VA. Medium to full-bodied. Wrapper: Mexican Binder: Ecuador Filler: Nicaragua Smoke time was almost 2 hours. Construction was perfect. I got a decent amount of pepper that when combined with smoky Lapraoig Scotch was beautiful. | |
| Tatuaje Monster Smash (2024) #9 Krueger | ![]() |
| By: cnyCigarGuy (10/30/2025 09:49 AM) | |
| A fun smoke for Halloween with the Freddy Krueger themed colored wrapper. This was a bit spicy with hints of Chocolate and nuts. Wrapper: Mexican San Andrés Binder: Nicaragua Filler: Nicaragua Smoke length 1.5 hours. Started fairly mild and ramped up to med-full. It never got more bitter at the end, which is a pet peeve of mine for so many cigars. | |

| By: ElCid1986 (10/27/2025 12:08 PM) | |
| Ecuador Connecticut shade wrapper is beautifully presented with primary and secondary bands. V cut and cold draw was clean and provided light tobacco and earthy essence. Combustion and draw created thick creamy smoke. Nutty with baking spices created a smooth smoking experience. Construction was very good with razor sharp burn line and draw. Spice was consistently mild on retro transitions to a coffee with baking spice adding to the nutty qualities. A very enjoyable morning cigar and was paired with a morning light roast coffee. Fine cigar from AJ. | |
| Black Label Trading Company La Madonna Negra Corona Gorda BP | ![]() |
| By: Kid Montana (10/17/2025 09:29 PM) | |
| I really enjoyed this one. It was gifted to me but I hear this lightly box pressed edition is limited. It smoked with a perfect draw, and beautiful even burn. This cigar was full body and full flavor from light to nub. The ash only hangs on for an inch or so; I did dump a good chunk in in my lap so watch out! Typical of Black Label offerings, its all flavor all the time, whether you retrohale or not. I smoked it as my first of the night but this one would be great even as a third. | |
