Nica Libre???
 

Anyone Heard or tried these?
Nica Libre


Calling all Padron fans!

Hand-crafted in Nicaragua
Supposedly "An Excellent Alternative" to Padron. Curious.:)

Thanks, All!:tu

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I know a few people that have tried them and they did like them and they did remind them of a Padron. I think its one of those cigars that is worth the money to buy a box and forget about it for awhile, then it will be a great smoke!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I've never smoked a Padron, so I can't compare them, but Nica Libres are a tasty smoke.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Never smoked one, but people keep telling me that they are a decent smoke, just don't expect them to taste like a Padron.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Never smoked a Padron!? :( Remedy that ASAP!:2

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I have a box on the way. I'm not paying much attention to the Padron comparison, but the word on the street is they're pretty good. We shall see :tu

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I can also confirm this to be the word on the street :-)

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Thanks, All! Maybe someone could do a review?:)

Re: Nica Libre???
 

i got a feeling u will do very soon

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I bought a box of the exclusivo off cbid and smoked one off the truck. It was a little rough around the edges but all in all not a bad stick. I wouldn't go comparing them to Padron's other than being a Nic puro. It was a good inexpensive cigar that will get better with age that I would buy again in the future. Just my $.02 though

Re: Nica Libre???
 

just bought the CI daily deal. we shall see how good they are!!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Let me know how they turn out buddy! I'm extremely curious...

Re: Nica Libre???
 

You going to be able to fit them in with all those gurkhas in your humi? :r

Re: Nica Libre???
 

probably not... i will toss them in my **** humidor!!!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I think they are a very good cigar for the price, taken on their own merits. I've got a box squirreled away, and occasionally smoke some singles.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

They do not taste liek padrons.. but they are very good for the price. Im happy.

The unlit aroma of the foot is amazing!!!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

isnt that where the gurkha's are?

Re: Nica Libre???
 

:tpd:

Re: Nica Libre???
 

The gurkhas are in a gold plated humidor!!!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

That's the only way to make 'em worth anything Bobby :r

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I smoked one in a blind review and didn't like it at all. But it could have just been a bad stick.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

My thoughts: they are decent to good but a little young still give them 6mo to a year and they will be similar to a Padron as in that same earthy maduro flavor category but they are not a Padron IMO each is a little different.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I bought a 5ver of them and wasn't overly impressed but I really didn't give it a fair shake either as I was fixing something or the other. (like always :tu )

Re: Nica Libre???
 

HATER!!!!

Im going to have a humidor constructed from diamonds... that will be my new gurkhador!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

How's the saying go? You can put lipstick on a pig but in the end it's still a pig. :tu

Re: Nica Libre???
 

no...

you can put your mouth on a gurkha,... and be in heaven.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I always pictured heaven being surrounded by clouds...however it must be filled with turds! :r

:tpd: The Doble Maduros are excellent!

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I always knew gurkhas were bad, but I didn't know that they killed you.:)
I don't want to go to heaven yet.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Twain refuted.... until he found out there were cigars there.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I liked the Nica Libre better than the Padron.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Dan; You Are Kidding, Right?:confused:

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Nope. I think the Padron x000 series are overly harsh and bitter. I liked the Nica better.

Now, there is no way the Nica is better than the Padron 26 or Anni :)

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Interesting! How Much Rest For The Nica?

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I don't know. Another great BOTL gave it to me.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

I like 'em.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

That's because you'll die instantly?

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Dan, remember I got my Nica's about 2 weeks before I gave you one, so there was pretty much no rest. The first one I smoked was right out of the mail from C.I....and it was pretty wet, but smoked good and I liked the overall flavor.

Re: Nica Libre???
 

Thats good to know! I imagine they would get even better then if I liked one with no rest. Thanks again for the stick :tu
