A Journey Through Havana’s Finest – An Appreciation
I recently acquired a selection of Cuban classics from your shop, and it has been nothing short of a voyage through cigar excellence. Each stick tells a story—here are mine so far:
Cohiba Siglo I
A petit corona with the soul of a king.
Smooth, refined, and impossibly balanced. Notes of creamy cedar, honey, and a whisper of Cuban terroir from first light to the last satisfying puff. The ash held like a promise kept. A masterpiece in miniature.
Montecristo No. 2
The pyramid of prestige.
Although I have yet to light this legend, its reputation precedes it. The construction is flawless, the aroma rich with potential—I await a moment worthy of its grandeur.
Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchills
Romance in a ring gauge.
Another beauty waiting patiently in my humidor. The weight, the sheen of the wrapper, the faint scent of oak and sweetness—it speaks of quiet evenings and major moments to come.
Partagas Serie D No. 4
The bold classic—smoked and saluted.
Earth, pepper, and dark cocoa roared from first light to final ash. powerful, rich, and unapologetic. This cigar doesn’t whisper—it commands. A true Cuban heavyweight.
Romeo y Julieta No. 2
Elegance uncomplicated.
A perfect petit corona. Smooth, consistent, and deeply satisfying. No bitterness, no ego—just good tobacco, done right. An morning coffee or evening port kind of cigar.
This order was more than a purchase—it was an invitation to slow down, to taste, to appreciate. Your cigars were well-packed, perfectly humidified, and clearly stored with respect. I’ll be back for more… especially once I’ve properly met the Montecristo No. 2.
Thank you for providing not just product, but experience.

Cigar Feedback
I like the packaging although some of the cigars had cracks at the lip area, showing signs of dryness. If it was possible I would attach a picture.

Hi jabu,
Thank you for your review.
Our contact details are on our website and on the email you received with your order, so you could always gotten in touch with us.
We give 24 hours after the order has been received as per T&Cs to deal with any complaints.
Our warehouse is fully isolated and temperature (21 celcius) and humidity (70%) controlled, and this is rigorously controlled, so your claim that the cigars are not well kept are not true, cigars is our business.
Cracks can occur during transport due to handling and temperature differences.
We can rectify this as long as we get made aware there was an issue in a reasonable time frame.
You placed your order on the 4th of August, unfortunately we can not do anything now.
But in future, please contact us as soon as possible and we will swop out the cigars.
Speed = cigars.co.za
I received the courier notification within 2min of placing my order. From the courier!!! If I can fault cigars.co.za on anything, it is the warning stickers on the box, if you place the stickers yourself, maybe look at using a sticker that can be removed more easily.....in one piece. As it ruins the presentation. But the service delivery and speed thereof is next level!

Hi Malcolm, thank you for your review! The Tobacco law dictates what type of paper for the health warning labels need to be used. It’s called tear proof paper, and that can not be changed. Just feel lucky we don’t have images on the boxes like other countries!

5 stars
Making payment was a bit confusing as you first have to create an order and then access the order to make payment. (I am not sure if this was just me.
Apart from that, it was seamless. Goods were delivered in excellent condition the very next day (mind you I placed my order like 8pm).
I bought it as a gift so I can’t comment on the actual goods, but if it is anything like their service, it aught to be fantastic.

I recently purchased a few boxes of cigars from Pedro, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The service was incredibly fast and efficient—my order was handled with care and delivered promptly. Pedro was professional, friendly, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. The cigars itself are always top quality, and I’m definitely coming back for more. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great products and excellent service! 👌🔥
