The Vudu is a surprisingly good Famous house brand.

At the other extreme, the Flor de Todo is a true dog rocket--you have been warned. :-)

Thanks all and I smoked one last night and it's a pepper bomb which I equate to strong ligers and since I slept like crap as I was too amped up, I think I can attest to it being full of Vitamin N however no nicotine hang over this morning so that is a huge plus.

This is everything I hoped in that it's a suped up Jalepeno. I had to do a few re-lights but that does not bother me and I attribute that to the rather thick wrapper on the cigar which is probably the reason it's a pepper bomb. All I can say is I enjoyed it a lot but I will remember the Vitamin N potency next time.

Got me a 10er of A. Flores Gran Reserva by PDR, I love these smokes and usually smoke the half corona's but oldforge posted a deal from Cigar Page for these double magnum 6x60 for $2 a stick, a little out of my size liking but I could not pass up the price...10 smokes $19.55 shipped! Ordered on Tuesday arrived today with free shipping! Maybe my new place for smokes as they have some great prices!

Porch Dweller 04-01-2017 02:49 PM

Nice, Mike! I'm not a huge fan of 6x60 either but those A. Flores are tasty in that size.

Thanks, I haven't tried them yet but couldn't pass up the box after reading some reviews.

I will be in Corpus Christi this month from 23-28 as well, if you know of some good places in the area.

Smoked One Yesterday, Dave!:D It Was Fairly Fresh, One Week Of Rest. I Didn't Notice That Much Nicotine, Myself. Lots Of Sweetness And Pepper, But Not As Strong As I Expected. Great Cigar ROTT!:tu

It's interesting you say that becauuse I have smoked two others and they were good but not as peppery as the first and I would submit not quite as strong.

I donated or traded two to friends of mine and they liked the cigar quite a bit and noted it was smooth with a good nicotine hit. Both like a lot of nicotine and chew nicotine gum so they really look for cigars with nicotine.

I would say they aren't super heavy in nicotine and those cigars for me are like the Alec Bradley Tempus or some of AJ cigars. The Tempus will give me a nicotine hangover and AJ cigars do not.

So in summary, I'm not getting pepper after the first cigar however I've smoked them as second cigars so not the best time to analyze hah. I will smoke one as a first and spot check it :)

Now I smoked one tonight as my only cigar and got sweetness with a mix of charred wood. The pepper was there but not as prominent and more in the mix. The nicotine was there but much more normal and no buzz. I may have been tired in the first I smoked and this time well rested so it's not messing me up and more relaxing me.
