Default Re: Joya de Nicaragua Fuerte

dave's short answers:
JdN Fuerte - People who have tastes I generally respect seem to like them. I've tried 4 or 5 and found them to be lacking any enjoyable flavor. Nothing objectionable - just one of those that I sort of look forward to it being over. Won't pitch it. Just won't go looking for another.

GH 3 Siglos (SLS, Triple, etc.) - I never understand why they don't get more love. They're going for under $2 on cbid lately. Unbelieveable. Maybe because they don't have pepper? I don't know. They are medium bodied, lots of great flavor - very little nic-type power. Wonderful smoke in any size. Famous had lanceros under the Triple label that were incredible. I smoked a torp this weekend that was delicious start to finish. If pepper-bombs are the only thing you enjoy, then pass. Otherwise, give them a try.
