Fuente Opus X Super Belicoso

El Titan de Bronze Redemption corona
El Titan has been around for quite a while now, and I've been enjoying a lot of their cigars over the past couple of years. They make cigars for Warped (Don Reynaldo, La Colmena) and La Palina...

Re: Aganorsa Arsenio
These are absolutely fantastic smokes. They're one of the best cigars that Aganorsa makes, IMO. Lots of depth to the flavor, 'strong' but smooth. They aren't really popular, so I worry that they'll...

Re: Omar Ortez Original maduro torpedo

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...

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!

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.
