Default If you love a spicy, sweet, heavenly maduro...

...you need to check out Holt's high noon deal.
Old Henry Maduro Beli's 10/$35, free shipping.
This is, for my money, the absolute best house brand out there. Ever.
It's a Pepin blend full of sweet spice, thick smoke, chewy flavor, and sheer heaven. I have smoked $20 sticks that don't come close to the quality, flavor, or plain old goodness. They age beautifully and are made of good stuff.
I've never seen them at this low a price, it's honestly a steal even at twice what they normally retail.
This is also a newb must. I've passed gazillions of these out to new guys and have had nothing but raves.
Oh, the natural is good, too, but it's not on sale. It's just not as sweet as the maddie.

If I had to name a stick that this was like, it's kind of Padron-esque. The body isn't as thick, but the Nic spice is a bit stronger. It's sweeter than Padron maduro, but not quite as full. It's stands somewhere between the x000 series and the 64 Anni's.
A better comparison would probably be a 2008-09 DPG JJ Maduro. They're right in that same ballpark. Simply awesome.

Scott, I agree with Shane, that is a great description but I too will have to wait. I have spent WAY to much money this month on cigars and other "toys".

You nubes should try to pace yourselves.

I'd strongly suggest you all run down and sell some blood or shake down the neighbor kid, or turn some tricks. Whatever it takes.
Sometimes the addiction calls for extraordinary measures. This is that time. lol

I already tried all that, I have even sold my golf clubs and anything else I could find to buy cigars

I get the Holt's catalog and have eye balled these, I will take your advice and try them in the future

Default Re: If you love a spicy, sweet, heavenly maduro...

I agree completely Scott (except I like the corona size best). This is not only one of the best House Brands but currently my favorite Maduro above all others.
The Natural wrap is a very good one too.
I received some of the "Gold" Conni wraps w/ my last box of Maduros. Not quite as good as the other 2 (but I'm not a huge fan of Conn wraps) but very good none the less.
If you love med-full maduros you will love these.
