The Mitchellero Peru Toro turned out to be a really enjoyable cigar. It’s a nice, big stick that lasted me about an hour, and it felt like a proper sit-down smoke rather than a quick one. I’d definitely order it again for special occasions. The build quality was solid with an even burn and easy draw throughout, and the flavour was similar if not nicer than a lot of more expensive ones I've had in my time.
For the price, it genuinely feels like a step above what you’d expect. The whole experience had that “proper cigar” feel without being too heavy or overbearing. It’s the sort of smoke that rewards taking your time with it, and one I’ll be keeping in my humidor for those moments when I want something a bit more special.

As someone still new to cigars, the Mitchellero Peru Toro has been a real eye-opener for me. It’s described as an approachable, well-priced smoke, and I can see why it’s a favorite among beginners and more seasoned smokers alike. On the cold draw, I got hints of earth and a touch of cedar, nothing too heavy or intimidating. Once lit, it opened up with a very smooth profile—creamy at times, with light coffee and nutty notes. There’s a bit of pepper, but it doesn’t dominate; it just adds a little tingle that keeps things interesting. The construction was surprisingly solid for the price point—the draw was consistent, and the ash held on longer than I expected. By the halfway point, I noticed some leathery notes and a mild sweetness that reminded me of dried fruit, though very subtle. It’s not overly complex, but it doesn’t need to be; it’s just a straightforward, reliable cigar that delivers plenty of flavor without overwhelming a newcomer. I’d happily recommend this to anyone starting out or looking for an easy daily smoke. For me, this one feels like great value and enjoyable balance.
Rating: 8/10

An absolutely great smoke. Will definitely be having a few of these in my humidor.
The taste is quite unique, I'd embarrass myself if I gave you the taste I likened it to. I did enjoy the continued taste right down to the nubb.
Suffice to say, this was a lovely way to spend an hour, the cigar drew nicely, It burnt evenly, and it stayed a light and the ash was solid.

Aged for 20 months and benefitted greatly from it. Strong Peruvian flavour but mild in overall strength, doesn’t change much if it all throughout but this is actually a benefit, as in the latter stages where cigars usually would become harsh, instead it remained remarkably smooth. The size feels great in hand and is easily a standout amongst the Mitchellero Peru range

A fantastic cigar for a reasonable price.
One of the few I have ordered regularly.
Unquestionably has one of the cheapest-looking band-designs in my humidor, they could surely come up with something a bit more classy.
But that’s a purely aesthetic quibble.
Hugely enjoyable.
