Damn I would have gotten a box of Oliva V lancero's had they not been sold out. I've been wanting to try them.

I have to agree with the Hemi's, and the Padron's... I haven't had any of the others.

If you need their phone number, let me know :)

I appreciate it, but I ended up getting a box of Oliva O maddie's instead. The next order I'll be sure to grab a box.

I take it they went by country of manufacture because the Illusione is made in Hondo but made from Nica baccy.

I don't agree with any of those but I still dig ECCJ.

It would have been cool for Dion if the stick he made for them, the "ECCJ", had won an award. Glad I got a box before they pretty much disappeared.

I think he should have got some sort of mention with the ~ECCJ~!

I grabbed a ~ECCJ~ in Reno when I was there in July!!! I think Fumare is the last place on earth where you can find these!!!

Re: 2009 ECCJ Award Winners

I definitely agree that the best cigar from Nic. is the PAM '26 #9 Maduro

Re: 2009 ECCJ Award Winners

I smoked 4 don tomas clasico this week (2 rothschild + 2 cetro no2). I liked both of them but i prefer the rothschild and i think its a great value at 3€/stick.
Havent tried the rest of them because they are either unavailable or overpriced in germany.

I cannot disagree with anything on the list. I do like how they break it up by country of origin.
