Re: Omar Ortez Original maduro torpedo
Smoking another one of these.
Friends, the price to value ratio of the OOO line is off the charts. You could take the band off these and fool a cigar snob into thinking they're a $20 cigar. I'm...

Smoking another one of these. DAMMIT, why didn't I buy a box when I had the chance? These are one of the best NC's I've smoked in recent years, no joke. I guess I'm stuck with online singles until I...

Re: Lancero love
I've smoked quite a few of the Espiritu #2 Fundadores and found them to be a solid smoke, but not a mind-blower. I didn't know that the $3 came in a Fundadores. Thanks for the review!

These are one of those cigars that I would consider a 'gimmick' cigar. But I was reading positive reviews of them, so when I saw them at a B&M somewhere (I forget where), I decided to grab one to...

Re: Warped Don Reynaldo Regalos
Smoking another one of these.
CC smokers: Warped has *almost* cracked the code with these.
Buy a box.
Trust me. At today's prices, these cigars come REALLY close.

So I ended up buying 2 boxes of these at different times. Piece of advice: sign up for alerts and check Cigar Page often. I scored these for like 30% off earlier this year.

Re: LONSDALE love!
I've been smoking on a '17 box and they've been fantastic. So good, in fact, that I decided to pay an exorbitant sum for 2 more boxes. Got lucky with the box dates. 2019.
