The Bolivar Royal Corona is generous with its spicy and woody flavours yet it retains control over the more aggressive character of the these flavours. Its an easy, comfortable cigar, perfect for a long summer afternoon with fellow aficionados. This star size of the 1990’s returned in 2006 to top Cigar Aficionado’s poll for best cigar of the year; the first Cuban ever to do so.

There is nothing like smoking a Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure No.2. The Hoyo De Monterrey No.2 is crisp and fruity. Easy going with complexity which make this cigar a real joy all year round if you’re outdoors or have the luxury of smoking indoors. The Robusto of choice for many cigar epicureans. Formerly presented without any band, now it sports no less than two, so its identity is clear. Length in millimetres – 124 Ring Gauge – 50 Strength – Light Origin – Cuba

The Trinidad Coloniales has to be one of the most refined and well balanced cigars on the market. Very smooth and creamy with hints of coffee, cedar and light earth flavour. The Trinidad Coloniales reminds us of a Cohiba Siglo II but with a bit more subtlety. Length in Millimetres – 132 Ring Gauge – 44 Strength – Medium Origin – Cuba

Trinidad’s newest addition, the Vigía, is the exact opposite of its first cigar, the Fundadores. Rather than being long and slender, this cigar is short and squat. While it maintains Trinidad’s signature pigtail cap, its heavy ring gauge offers an abundant smoke, lush with earthy truffle notes, oakiness and a warm nutty finish. Vigía is named for the watchtowers in the Cuban city of Trinidad erected to observe the sugarcane fields. Length in Millimetres – 110 Ring Gauge – 54 Strength – Medium Origin – Cuba

The Trinidad Reyes is easily one of the best smaller cigars around. Wonderful smoke from start to finish, you can see why Cigar Aficionado gave it 96 out of 100. Length in Millimetres – 110 Ring Gauge – 40 Strength – Medium Origin – Cuba

The H. Upmann Half Corona is creamy with hints of coffee. Small attractive Havana, good draw, with complex flavours for such a small cigar. An excellent short smoking break cigar. Length in millimetres - 90 Ring Gauge - 44 Strength – Light to Medium Origin – Cuba

The Guantanamera Cristales Cigar is mild smoke that offers the simple pleasures of Cuban tobacco in a machine made format. Made with short-filler tobacco, this is a deceptively substantial cigar at just under six inches long. Presented in individual plastic tubes it is light bodied, pre-cut and affordable set, making it a popular choice for gift among occasional smokers at weddings or other memorable events. Length in millimetres - 150 Ring Gauge - 41 Strength – Light Origin – Cuba

The Partagas Serie D No.6 is the newest recruit to Partagas “D” series and joins the iconic robusto sized Partagas Serie D No.4 and the Serie D No.5, the latter of which was launched in 2011. All boast a 50 ring gauge, but the No.6 is the shortest in length at 3½”, making this stout cigar ideal for brief smoking breaks whilst retaining all the rich aromas associated with the Partagas brand. Overall, a good cigar that is a favourite of some lovers of short cigars. Length in millimetres - 90 Ring Gauge - 50 Strength – Full Origin – Cuba
