Humidor Ivan's Box

Very good cutter - does the job precisely, much better than times more expensive cutters - if it was steel and not plastic would have been perfect. But with this price, you can afford getting new every year or often...

Very good cigar, smooth, woody and earthy taste, with some sweet creamy taste and a bit of leather. The maduro one is more sweet and leathery than this one, but the natural is kind of better balanced. The only thing is that ended for 50 min, which is not so satisfactory for churchill (and I have not overburn it)... not sure why, will try few more.

Very good cigar, not too strong, smooth taste, smooth and equal burning, very very good construction for perfecto - no issues at all. The only thing I did not like is that ended for merely an hour... want more.

So far working very good... for that money one simply cannot want more.

The cigar started very well, not too strong and quite pleasant. But there was a straw inside and in the middle of the cigar there was tar dripping on big nasty brown drops from the cut - this is the first time I see this - was not able to finish the cigar.

Quite satisfactory cigar - the taste is perfect maduro, medium to strong, yet very well balanced, so well, that the aroma is gentle... perfect! 2 remarks on the quality - first, the ash was falling on flakes, not very strong, one have to remove it more often and second, the second band, where 'Le Bijou' is written was glued to the wrapper and hard to remove, even when warm - I took it with a piece of the wrapper, which spoiled a bit the smoking experience in the last third. Overall would gladly taste again, the aroma is very fine.

Very good quality, very sharp, cuts precise without tearing the cap or damaging the wrapper outside of the cut.

Visually quite good, burning well, good draw. The ash is falling, you need to be careful for your lap.. also, when I cut it, a lot of small pieces fell, the cut was not clear... taste not strong, typical Dominican mild cigar, nice, though hard to feel... good for everyday. But then, if looking the price, probably the best cigar I had for 2€, Churchill format!

I am happy with it, just do not fill too much, as not working - best is 1/2 to 2/3, no more than 2/3.

I am a Macanudo fan... not just because of the consistent production quality, but also due to the taste - I like maduro wrappers, but with Macanudo, all of the types have good, valuable taste... recently I am monitoring the same with Torano - no matter the type, all are good quality and good, interesting taste, even the light, natural wrapper ones... recently had 5 or 6 different and none was a miss... this particular one, with the Cameroon wrapper, is super, I had 80 min of a great time, very tasty cigar though not maduro, it really managed to remove the pressure and take the focus on its taste and the smoking experience, perfect! I will for sure try it again, as well as other Toranos...

Good humidor, fit for purpose, especially if you season it nicely before using, but the hygrometer is 10% off from where it should be and you can't easily calibrate and adjust, as on the adjustment bolt there is a drop of lacquer and you can't twist it, nor is easy to clean the lacquer in the tiny hole... rather you should remember how much the measurement is off or change the hygrometer.

Very good and accurate, fits for purpose.

Visually very nice, rolled well, not too tight, but quite evenly. Lights easy, burns nice, the wrapper a bit unevenly, which is normal for a maduro wrapper. Qualitywise is good cigar. In terms of taste I kind of expected more from the maduro wrapper - it had the typical aromas, but not strong enough, not tasty enough... good cigar, but depends on the taste...

Decent first half, second one becoming too hot as a taste, almost unpleasant, overall no much aroma, definitely one can expect more from the taste. Everything else is fine - good quality in terms of shape, vision, burning, smoke, ash and draw, quite easy to smoke, but one smokes the cigar for the taste at first place...
