Default Cigar Factory Outlet......Question?

Anyone tried the cigars from CFO?

I was just wondering how they are, it looks like they have some really good prices.

Thanks

The number 7's were always really good but some poeple have said they need some rest.

I've got some that have been sitting for about a year now, maybe I'll have one.

CFO (or Cigar Fox) is in my backyard, and is one of my regular stops.

They do have some of the lowest prices around here for a B&M, but for us in Michigan, they have to zap us with the 34% State cigar tax, which makes it worthless to order anything online.

My understanding is that they do a very big mailorder business (I was told around 1.5 million sticks last year) but I can't tell you much about their customer services regarding mail order.

They do have 2 house blends under the name of "Jenuwine"; My favorite is the Heavenly Honduran's which are a nice medium stick with a spicy taste. I like the corona size, #1.

I thought the OP was talking about The Cigar Factory Outlet, which is in NJ.

TheCigarFO.com is the source for Blend #7, a great cheap smoke. I have had some of their other blends as well. The Graffiti is a tasty stick somewhat similar to a Tat white.

Andrew, you may correct...

There's International Cigar Factory Outlet. Detroit Cigar Factory Outlet, Cigar Factory Outlet in Norwalk, CT and in Miami, FL.... (I googled them...)

If he was talking about CFO / Cigarfox.com, that's their "online" location for the CFO located here in Troy, MI.

I tried a bundle of the BLEND #7 I think they were TOROs. I didn't care for them and ended up giving most of them away. The guy I gave them to, tells me now and then that they get better each time he has one. Different strokes...

The #7 was hit and miss fresh but once it sat for about 6 months it was pretty good. The Premier 6 is a pretty darned good smoke and you won't find anything better at that price range. The Peruvian ligero is great but it has to sit for at least 8 months. When I ordered I got a free Stinky but that was quite some time ago.

I ordered a bundle, and a couple samplers from them about a year ago. I was impressed with the cigars, but felt the service was pretty bad. I finally got the cigars after about 5 weeks, and 4 or 5 unreturned phone calls, so I don't think I'd order again
