[elderboy02]

how bout a $2.50 pettite corona or something. 4.50 really isn't "economy" priced. you can get a Red Label PC for that much

and I'm really not a fan of the Toro size, why not the robusto and a corona gorda, or PC?



btw, I don't mean to sound like a whiny girl, I'm just saying that 4.50-5 bucks isn't exactly cheap for one cigar

But then again "economy" is all based on an individuals income. For me. My daily sticks usually cost $4 - $7 but I get them on on cbid at a better price. A "full" priced Tat Red, etc mean pay attention to the cigar, no BSing around. Not that I am the envious type, I could earn more if I was willing to do what it's required, but I'm enjoying my free time in life more than $$$$$$. Even if I had the cash for the $10, $15, etc sticks my upbringing would not allow me to "burn" that kind of money . Thanks Dad.......

My thoughts exactly.

I think "economy" and that price point is WAY past that!!!

[duckmanco]

If MSRP is $4.00-$5.00 then I am betting these will be in $3.00 range or so, something like a lot 23 or the Partagas Black price points, which I might not call economy, but certainly not out of control price wise. I love 3-5 dollar cigars as both my everyday and any reason, including special occasion smokes.

The way I see it, its better than yet another 8.00 -10.00 Pepin smoke.

[Celt]

Dont get me wrong I really like Tats and DPGs but I do think that a lot of what you get now a days is about the name not so much quality and consistency as it was before they became so popular.

I will always try them when they come out with a new one and continue to smoke the ones I like but I am finding it harder and harder to justify some of the more expensive smokes over Oliva's stuff now a days.

Between the Oliva O Habano and the Vs its becoming increasing hard to find more consistently good cigars.

i'm looking forward to this. love his lines

[dunng]

I will have to at least try it...

[Da Klugs]

Interesting. Pete was chattin this up when we met him a couple months ago at the Havanna Club. He's a member here, maybe we can get some comment.

[Footbag]

This should be a good one. I don't see Pete or DPG as the type to cut corners. In a recent interview, he said they were considering leaving out the triple cap, and Pepin's rollers couldn't do it. They couldn't "go backwards" as he said.

As for the $4.50 price tag, I cannot think of a cheaper DPG blend.

I would also expect the two wrappers to be well received, especially in this community. Everyone is always debating how wrappers effect flavor. This will be a great chance to tell.

[Cigarcop]

I'll be in to trying them foooo sure, I dig the Tats

[hotreds]

Another one for the "to try" list.

[Skywalker]

The band looks strangely familiar???

[TripleF]

Economy priced cigars certainly have changed in their definition of economy.

Looks interesting......can't wait to try one.

[tsolomon]

Pete was talking about these at the Frank release and said they would be out in January.

He mentioned this along with picking out the tobacco to be used. I certainly want to try them.

Ashton Benchmade and Holt's Fumadors. Less than $3 a cigar.

I had a couple fumadores a while back and other than them falling apart on me shortly after lighting, I found then generally uninteresting and slightly ammonia-y

cant wait to try these, although they are not quite an 'economy' smoke on my college-student-with-a-girlfriend budget
