Chinchalero Picadillo Maduro Cigar - 1 Single

Like many have mentioned a very 1 dimentional cigar to the end, slightly spicy light up but apart from that it was quite earthy throughout. It was also very smooth and overall an excellent hour long smoke in such a cheap package. For being so cheap it certainly does have a smooth and fulfilling smoke compared to a lot of other cigars in the same price range and even some that are twice as expensive.

One dimensional till the last third. Pleasant earthy and chocolate flavour for 2/3, nothing to exiting, consistent without become sweet or bitter. In the last third Medium draw with rich smoke. I prefer get something more complex at a smaller ring gauge for the same price but I will definitely have some around if I fancy a bigger ring and Im looking for that flavour, overall not a bad experience.

The price tag might be on the cheaper end of the cigar world but that hasnt reflected cheap in the quality. Originally I ordered the Chinchalero Novillo Maduro Fuerte, but seemingly was unavailable and I was kindly substituted with TWO of these by C.Gars Ltd. Smooth and easy draw with a fair amount of flavour and lots of smoke. A nice even burn throughout with no need for a touch up with the lighter. Definitely considering reordering a few more of these.

I really enjoyed this cigar. A pleasant introduction to Maduro tobacco at a decent price. Due to the heavy gauge IÂ’d recommend a punch or, as I prefer a small drill bit, rather than a cutter. The cigar lasted about 20 minutes and burnt nice and evenly without the harshness often associated with less expensive cigars. The only downside was that it started to unwrap itself a little towards the finish. However IÂ’ll definitely be buying more of these.

Brilliant for the price. Can be a great daily smoke for anybody who likes the stogies but can't always afford the more expensive brands. You can even go a pound higher and try out the 60 ring gauge Chinchalero, (I'm afraid i forget the name of the actual cigar now but you can find it on the Chinchalero page) which is also great and creates a nice amount of smoke :-) It also comes in the darker or lighter wrapper just like this cigar. I tend to prefer the dark but the lighter is good also.
