Humidor Smoked - Tested

Very high quality smoke, nice draw and smoke volume, mild in strenght. Will definitely smoke again when in stock.

Very good quality for this price range, good smoke draw, even burn, good flavours. First and second third I tasted a bit of sweetness which was good. The final third it was a bit peppery which I liked. Overall a good beginner smoke, or if you are a daily smoker on a budget this is one of the best.

Given to me as a present from a friend. The classic Connecticut smell come off the moment you remove the cellophane. The construction quality is just perfect! On the cold draw sweetness and hay are among the main flavor and smell notes. Uppon light up a minimal sweetness paired with creamy notes of wood, leather, a bit of coffee, cinnamon and just a tiny bit of nuts on the retrohale. Pure joy from start to finish!

A very high quality cigar with a sweet cap. Doesn't overtake the taste nor does it last througout the smoke. Huge plus since I dislike aromised or sweetened cigars. I bought to as a test to see how sweet it really is and for someone who just doesn't like it this is a VERY good one. A true conneticut smoke. Mild in strenght and flavor, very creamy pleasant smoke. Definitely buying a box as they are discontinued!

Such a contender in the Cuban range of brands. Guantanamera goes to show that Cubans can be dirt cheap and deserved to be talked about and enjoyed. Having said that, aroma wise it is in a unique yet still Cubanesque category. Not comparable to any other Cuban brand but that does not take away any merit. A very good mixture of flavours, slightly stonger than the Cristales variant. Good and even burn, lots of smoke, very good draw resistance though that may vary since they are machine made. Nevertheless 100% recommended!

A flavour filled mild to medium cigarillo, becomes a bit more spicy towards the end. Good burn, overall production quality seems to be pretty on point compared to other more expensive brands. It's very comparable to Montecristo though I personally find the Partagas chicos to be of a slightly high production quality. Smoke duration 20 - 30 minutes.

Very nice, notes of nuts, cream and chocolate pudding in first and second third. Final third was more of a woody peppery note but still a pretty pleasant smoke. Will definitely purchase again.

The best one out of all 3 Manzanitas For it's price and short smoking time not bad at all. I honestly expected a bit more of the manzanita line in general but that's my problem. Very good production quality, good draw, fully packed with tobacco. I'd say it's a decent smoke if you don't have much time but what a small size stonger cigar. But I wonder if there are any better options out there, definitely gonna invest more time into the nub sized cigars.

*Smoked in the lounge. For it being the cigar of the year line I expected way more of the judge. It was a non-complex, stale and too subtle flavor profile that only came to life over halfway through the second third. For that price there are way better options out there that cost less and have a pretty straight forward flavor profile. the burn was pretty good and production quality was good but that all the positive there is to say.

A decent smoke to pair with anything you like. First and second third the notes of nuts, toast and very mild coffee came forward. In the final third notes of nut became stronger paired with wood and black pepper up front which is a nice combo in this blend. Variety in taste is really noticable througout the cigar. Smoking time about 45 - 60 minutes depending on how much you lay it to rest. Resting it "often" doesn't really affect it's flavours when you purge it on relighting. (I had other cigars where purging didn't remove the impurities.) Deffinitely a great cigar!

Not my cup of tea, yet I cannot deny the diversity of the notes found throughout the smoke. It might be that I don't like the general taste of the Criollo topsheet or Honduran tobacco in general. Will try more Criollo leaf / Honduran puro cigars in the future to find out if my palette just doesn't take it well. I would honestly recommend you to try at least 1 or 2 nevertheless of my personal opion given the most people seem to like it.

This cigar has a big ring gauge, which I liked. given it's size it wasn't hard to keep it going either which can occur in bigger ring gauges. I got nuts and coffee in the first and second third, final third was a bit more pepper and wood which I liked, flavour was divers overall! good amount of smoke in first and final third. Doesn't need a lot of touch up aswell it burns evenly througout. I had a solid +2 hour smoke, if you got the time or want to relax watching a movie or watching/listening to a podcast this is a good choice! Will buy again!
