Rafael Gonzalez Perlas Cigar - 1 Single

I love this for a nice, easy going smoke. They aren't overly complex, but the flavours are subtle but satisfying. It remains sweet and creamy throughout the 20 or so mins it takes to smoke, with mild coffee and cocoa notes, an ideal morning cigar. I've also found the packs of 5 very useful for taking to weddings and other events where non smokers may be tempted by a cigar: Mild enough to be suitable for non smokers but not so mild that regular smokers would find them bland. A good, safe choice. -Calum, Turmeaus Chester

Better to buy a couple of premium cigars than 10 cheap that you don't really enjoy, cigars are like wine, you get what you pay for, Aim for a high enjoyment factor at least about 80% if you don't get above this value then move onto some thing else, finding your perfect cigar might take a week or could take you 10 years or more but the journey will be far more pleasant if you go first class rather than steerage, enjoy the trip, This cigar is exactly the same size as the Cohiba Siglo I and Monticristo No.5 The build quality is as good as a Romeo and the band is reminiscent of the Monticristo, This cigar is easy to light and cut and the draw is superb, Light taste in the first third of a pleasant flavour which I have not experienced before I can only describe it has Hay the aroma is very nice and my partner likes the smell so that must be a good sign, Into the second third and still mild to medium and still hay with a bit of citrus, the burn is good and still enjoying this cigar, Coming into the final third and mild to medium and a touch of pepper now but not hot the aroma now is reminiscent of a D4 and the strength is picking up to medium, Nubbing this cigar is truly superb and would highly recommend these cigars for at least a 45 mins pub smoke mine lasted exactly 1 hour, this is a real unknown gem of a Cuban cigar and must be tried to be appreciated

Lovely creamy taste throughout, great mild smoke perfect for a 20 minute coffee break, great draw and nice even burn throughout. All together a great little smoke when time is an issue
