Humidor Short Dog

What a smoke. A classic. Although I prefer the box pressed versions, it is hats down a true beauty. Smoked it for about 90 minutes. very hard to beat in this price range. Excellent production from rolling to consistency, burning or ash resistance. All A++. Taste wise it comes with a full array of tastes. Full of smoke, all creamy and ranging from types of wood to nuts, coffee and chocolate, all toasty a bit, and also you can experience various types of soils in the aromas. Absolutely delightful. All in all it feels like my favourite snack. There are other snacks - some better some worse some more pricey and premium some less but no matter what I try - my favourite snack is my favourite snack. And this is what it is for me with New world Order series in general. Absolutely THE smoke for a cigar smoker. Yes I will have it again over and over and if you've never tried a New World Order - you must be kidding me.

A cake at the cafeteria's terrace in the first days of spring. Smoked it for about 90 minutes. Light, breezy, soft on the senses and tasty. Well produced and airy enough for easy draws. Maybe a little bit too easy for my taste. Good burn and great ash resistance though. Some wood, some coffee, a bit toasty and soily BUT what punched me was the interesting creamy array of various grass and herbs that made me think of spring. All in all it felt just like one of those first spring days when you take your date out for a cake and a glass of soda. Childish feeling almost. I will try more Villiger for sure. Yet - a bit too pricy for what it offers. There's true OGz and titans cheaper than 9 Eur/piece and with all due respect - you kind of need to push the bar a bit to beat this range - and the Nicaroma is almost there but not there. Worth a try at least for sure since it really is a good smoke. If you want to see it "in action" - check "shortafella" on IG to watch short unedited films about how the cigars really look like.

One more gem discovered. Went directly in my allstar list. Over 2 hours of delicious and hefty smoking experience for a stunning price. This is a clear example in my opinion on how pricing should work for cigars. Rolled jsut right, consistency makes it easy to smoke while still having plenty of smoke, and the burning is even all the way. The taste expands on almost all palettes from slightly pepperish wood to toasty grass, nuts, chocolate, leather and various types of soil. Chocolate, nuts and toasty grass are predominant though. And it lasts and it lasts. All in all to me this felt like my mother's home made chocolate - from back when I was a little kid. 3 or 4 kilos of thick, cocoa buttery, hefty and delicious, cheap to produce but priceless in enjoyment. CAO did a great job here. This cigar is not a masterpiece BUT it is a lesson to cigar producers these day: offer great quality for a fair and affordable price. Will definitely order a few more for my humidor. And yes I fully recommend you have one too.

A true candy. Smoked it for about 80 minutes and I have to say from start top finish everything went smooth. Good construction, nice consistency, easy to light and smoke and even had a perfect even burn with no need for corrections. Grassy, a bit fruity, wood is there too, decently creamy, chocolate is also present and some slight hints of soil and leather. A true delight. All in all it felt like back when I was a kid and I was allowed to eat ice cream only once a week or so. But when I did... what a delight. Not to mention the wrapping paper which makes it all look so awesome. Will I smoke it again? I will try some more from Criollo for sure. And if you want to taste something new and nice - you should too. If you want to see it "in action" - check "shortafella" on IG to watch short unedited films about how the cigars really look like.

A good smoke with a too big of a price though. Enjoyed it for about 80-90 minutes. Production wise - everything is right from rolling to consistency. Easy to light and smoke, nice ash resistance and a slight creamy touch to the overall taste. Speaking of which - taste is balanced between nuts, fruits and some wood and soil. A pleasant smoke which somehow reminds me of a lazy afternoon where there's nothing much to do but to indulge yourself in relaxation or...a good smoke. Still - very pricy for what it offers considering competition - which is tough these days. Will I smoke it again? For this price no. Should you? If money is no issue and want to try new things absolutely yes. If you want to see it "in action" - check "shortafella" on IG to watch short unedited films about how the cigars really look like.

Coffee and wood. Yummi. Smoked it for about 70-80 minutes and absolutely loved it. Production wise it is impeccable. From rolling to consistency there is no flaw whatsoever. Draw is easy and nice, burn is even and ash resistance is good. Taste wise, wood and coffee and nuts are kings here, with hints of soil, leather - and all a little it creamy. It is a bit on the strong side of things - but not bothering at all. Very easy to smoke. All in all it feels like a bicycle that just got out of service after a winter of sitting in the rain and cold - smooth and enjoyable. Will I smoke it again? Yes I will. And so should you. Good job, Camacho. If you want to see it "in action" - check "shortafella" on IG to watch short unedited films about how the cigars really look like. Peace and love!

A very good looking stick for sure. Enjoyed it for about 80 minutes. Well processed, but consistency was a bit too much - had to stick it to get the good draw. Still this is not an issue, because once you get it a bit airy with something sharp - the cigar is a charm. doesn't look juicy but it is and it even feel oily. Cream is there all the way from start to finish, wrapping the aromas together just nice. Nut, chocolate, spices, wood, some leather and some soil - are all mixed together for a super pleasant result. All in all it feels like picking up fruits directly from the tree - in nature - they don't look or feel perfect but damn they taste so good once you get the dust off them. Will I smoke it again? I think yes. Should you? Give it a try for sure. It really has potential.

Tried this out of curiosity - since cigarillos are not my thing in general and... well this one is definitely not my thing. Smoked it for about 8 minutes max. It is well rolled and easy to smoke, but the taste felt away from what makes me tick. Sourish-apple-acidic fruits. Bit grassy-which is not bad, but the strong fruity punch was too much for me. All in all it feels like trying to smoke a real apple. A bit too much for a cigarillo. Now would I smoke it again? Nope. Should you? If you are into fruits as flavour go for it. Peace and love!

What a delicious creamy stick. Enjoyed for about 75 minutes. Rolled by the book and consistency is just what you need for such a light delight. Draw and burn are exemplary and the smoke is plenty and super creamy. Aroma wise it's more about hints - from grass to nuts and coffee to young wood. And all toasty too. All in all it feels like those days in spring when it's sunny and flowers are blooming and you think to yourself - damn, I might make it for at least another year. Excellent production. Bravo Drew Estate. And yes I will smoke it again. And yes you should at least give it a try. Also I'm very tough on cigar prices - and even if this is not the cheapest in the game - it is absolutely worth every cent.

When you can't be a boss...be a mini boss. This lil mofo is super delicious. Enjoyed it for about 40 minutes and wow! Rolled to perfection and a consistency that allows a perfect creamy draw. Speaking of creaminess - plenty of it. Wood mixes well with grass, some nuts, bit of toast and some soil and leather to complete it all. Classic flavours in decent amounts but the way they mix is a recipe for success. All in all it feels like being a mini boss. A boss when you afford the big ones:) Joke aside you feel good and "worthy" smoking this little stick. Will I touch it again? Hell yea. Should you? Without a doubt yes. Pricey but good.

Quite a smoke indeed. Price though...even reduced and it's a lot considering options these days. Smoked it for about 90 minutes. Production quality is absolutely great. Perfectly rolled, top notch consistency and plenty of smoke. Not super easy to light and the burn not super even - but that is not a problem. Taste is a mystery. I think I need to smoke at least one more to fully be able to describe the array of aromas. Strong, concrete flavours of different soils, leather, toast, coffee, nut and various woods. Even a bit peppery. When I say soils and woods I mean quite a lot of them. Hard to identify. And that is amazing I have to admit. Still - all in all it feels like a business class for the price of first class. It is tip top but not an unforgettable experience. And you can get those for 25 Euros easy with other smokes. Will I smoke it again? I think I will yes. There's unfinished business here. Should you? If you have the plata - clearly worth a try.

A naughty one - playing with your emotions. Smoked it for about 110 minutes. Was not hoping much from it to be honest, although it looks and feels legit in your hand. Although very well rolled, with a great even burn and easy draws, first draws made me think of this smoke as to an uncut gem. Rough soil, hay, toast and wood aromas seemed to disappoint, but after the first 10% of the stick - it started to...make sense. It became slightly fruity and peppery, but not in a bothering way. Also after the first quarter, the roughness disappeared and coffee kicked in just at the right time. So in the end a very nice surprise. All in all it feel like that person we all know who is a genius, but lacks determination and self discipline to carve a character so the genius could really shine. Will I smoke it again? Hard to tell maybe yes - but in the price range there's some very serious competition. Should you? I would say yes try it - maybe not if you are a beginner since it is a bit rough.

Surprisingly good smoke. enjoyed it for about an hour. A very consistent smoke. From the top notch production to great consistency, smooth burn and smoke-generous draws. Flavour wise coffee is king here, laced with soil, toasty nuts and smoked wood and even some slight hints of various types of vegetation. All in all it feels like holding a 9mm (in the shooting range of course) compared to pellet toy guns - real and consistent. Will I smoke it again? Yes I will. Should you? Yes you should.

You like rose petals? Smoke this then. Smoked it for about 60 minutes. Very well produced, good consistency and it feels like quality tobacco. Not my style though. It is extremely sweet and the aromas evolve around sweet fruits and flowers - roses to be more precise. All in all it feels like that sweet, heavy, warm and humid summer air that you can either enjoy or for people like me - reminds you of death and funerals. Now will I smoke it again? Never - not because it's bad, but not my style at all. Should you? If you like sweet cigars for sure. Quality is there.
