I first had the Meerapfel La Estancia Exclusiva 50 last year and very much enjoyed it this one has had a year or so to age in the humidor and after a stroll along the Thames it seemed like a delightful way to cap off the day. I got some lovely creamy cedar, nutty, some vanilla, latte coffee and hay and a stone fruit. This is a light to medium cigar I picked up a little bit of spice as the cigar progressed. The burn line on this was a bit all over the place at the start but was fine after a touch up. The cigar is subtle and refined plenty of flavour but not in your face. Well worth a try.

A year ago I celebrated my beloved Tottenham Hotspur win the UEFA Cup with a Trinidad Esmerelda. This year I celebrated them avoiding relegation! It’s always a rollercoaster with this team! It felt apt to crack open another Trinidad, this time the, Vigia. I make no secret I love Trinidad’s and this Vigia was no exception. The wrapper had a lovely golden brown hue. I cut the pig tail cap off and was delighted by the wide open malty earthy cold draw. I couldn’t wait to light this one. I was greeted by oodles of creamy smoke the notes were almond, dough, earthy truffle and an oakiness. There’s a herbal saltiness that is quite divine. The cigar is so smooth and pairs with the champagne wonderfully. Moving on to the second third and I get a toffee sweetness a rich coffee, some cinnamon and light white pepper. This is delicious I take my time and savour every opulent t**e. The final third and the oakiness ramps up I get a mineral note and the baking spice, pepper combination end this cigar delightfully. It isn’t as good as the Esme but it’s wholly enjoyable in its own right.

I was gifted a Guatabey Cervantes by a dear friend and it has been in the humidor for a few months. I can find limited information on Gautabey. I’m led to believe it’s a non Habanos Cuban cigar and is a relatively new brand. The cigar wrapper looks very rustic but I do like the band with its red black and gold embossing. It’s a fairly nice size but the cigar did feel a bit under-filled on one side. The light provided some lovely hay cedar and a salty twang. After about half an inch the ash started to dog leg, possibly due to being slightly under-filled, it became a bit of a fight to keep it going. I didn’t need to relight but had to suck to bring it back several times. It canoed quite badly and i eventually corrected this with my lighter. After this the cigar did settle and burn better, this is where the cigar had felt more firmer pre light so definitely a construction issue. I got more creamy, slight vanilla, woody, hay notes with maybe a hint of coffee. The band was a bit tricky to remove and there was some damage to the wrapper. Overall flavour was nice just some construction issues which mark it down.

I received the Oliva Orchant Seleccion Skinny Cigar as a mystery cigar from my order a couple of months ago and decided to enjoy it in the evening sun paired with a Guinness. Don’t let the small size fool you this little stick packs a punch it started off with a spicy woody note that holds well into the second third. I’m then hit with some creamy earthy notes. The final third yields a bit more woody spice and a hint of cardamom. The ash was a bit flakey it held on for maybe a cm then become very flakey not the end of the world but certainly worth mentioning but for the price you can’t really go wrong.

The Partagas D4 is one of my favourite robustos. It’s a timeless Cuban classic that I reach for time and time again and I’m never disappointed. The rustic veiny appearance against the classic red and gold band is effortlessly elegant. The light produces bold creamy cedar and nutty notes the second third a rich coffee and chocolate note with a creamy sweetness and the final third charred wood cinammon and some pepper join the aforementioned notes. Whilst this maybe not a beginner cigar it shouldn’t be feared I happily retrohaled this cigar throughout. It’s simply glorious and should be a staple in any humidor.

Finally the stars aligned and I managed to make a meet and this time it was a short jaunt up to Hammersmith and the Melody Whisky bar. What a fantastic spot for a cigar the sun was out and the genteel trickle of the water features made the most tranquil of settings. They have an extensive whisky list for every budget as well as a full bar and cocktails for those who don’t partake in the whisky. They also have a reasonably priced selection of ci**rs available to purchase if you don’t have your own. This place is very close to me and will certainly be a new spot to enjoy a cigar going forward. I enjoyed the Trident Military cigar and a Punch Punch 48 LCDH. A glorious way to spend an afternoon.

cigar of the month was the brand new release from Trident Military Ci**rs. This is a brand I have been meaning to try for some time. They are a cigar brand founded by veterans and contribute to veteran run charities and I have nothing but respect for this! Down to the cigar and shhhh it’s The Most Secret a fantastic Toro cigar. I love the box on this felt like a secret agent opening my orders! I lit the cigar and was greeted by a sweet note straight away this quickly developed to an almost whisky, oaky note that stayed until the second third. Onto the second third and I got creamy, woody, cedar and to***co notes that continued to the end of the cigar. It’s smooth and I was retrohaling constantly. I must say I was impressed with the construction on these ci**rs the ash held admirable and the burn line was almost perfect. Very enjoyable cigar.

The more Vegueros Centrofinos I smoke, the more I’m impressed by them. These are solid Cuban ci**rs that consistently deliver. This particular one has a couple of years of age. The draw was lovely and open, and the burn line was sharp. This cigar delivers medium to full body with notes of wood, earth, chocolate, and a touch of coffee. These notes are fairly constant throughout the stick, with maybe the woody note being the most prevalent. This cigar doesn’t set the world alight but is a dependable friend when required. These can be got abroad for around £12, so they really fall into the “budget” Cuban territory.
