Cohiba Maduro 5

Stars: 4.5
Purchased: A la Civette - Paris

Smoked: London 25/1/14
Country: Cuba
Size: Secretos

Notes: Seemingly small and innocuous, the Cohiba Maduro 5 surprised me after a few minutes of correct lighting. Wholesomely flavoursome and friendly with surprising longevity. I enjoyed this stick with some Baileys and managed to get through 3 glasses of the stuff. Ultimately a very enjoyable smoke and will be keeping my eye out for these in future. 

Punch Punch

Stars: 3.5
Purchased: A la Civette - Paris
Smoked: Edinburgh 4/1/14
Country: Cuba

Notes: A good companion, stalwart and reliable, but not overly creative. This is how I think of the Punch Punch. 5 star for build and burn, but nothing overly exciting about the flavours.
