Re: Cupido original intrigues me
I have had the original Cupido back in cigar boom days and really enjoyed them. At the cigar shop I frequented at the time they were about $8. About three years ago I met up with a cigar shop owner who was big on cuban crafters and told me much of what I've read in the above posts. That the cupido blend is now the La Carolina. Well if that's correct from my experience smoking the La Carolina the quality has went 90 degrees south. Funny to me b/c much of the cigar boom sticks blew and I found that Cupido was one of the few sticks with the qualities I like to emerge. Well they may have emerged as another name but for me it's not at all what I was hoping to revisit. .02
