Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!

SmokinApe · 11-16-2008, 06:22 PM

I think there was a thread of this nature somewhere else... I miss it...

So let talk about the man, Don Pepin Garcia's cigars! What are you smoking? What's your favorite? Right now, I can't get enough Cuabo...

Cubaos are awesome. Another great one I've tried lately is, Tobbaco Baez. Nice full bodied cigar with a great punch to it.

I haven't been blessed with a Baez yet, but I will... I smoked a Tat Havana IV Hermosos yesterday that was outstanding...

Still haven't tried the cubao, aroma de cuba, my father and a couple of others... it's getting tough to keep up with the latest DPG

Fumador · 11-16-2008, 08:10 PM

Cubaos and 601's are grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat! I had a Centurion the other day and it was good and smooth. All of his cigars are excellent.

Another whore checking in. I can't get enough.

601's, blues, and Cubao.

neoflex · 11-16-2008, 09:07 PM

Did somebody call?????

The Blue is still my favorite although I have been smoking the hell out of some Blacks and LAC Edition Especials lately. Recently picked up a 5er of original release Guapos that I have been dreaming about but free time has been non existent since I have been spending a lot of time doing some work around the house for Thanksgiving. Have heard the Cubao is fantastic, but have yet to order any and have not been able to find them local yet. Had the opportunity to try the Vegas Cubanas and both times I had to put the stick down prematurely as I thought they were that bad. I guess the guy is allowed to have one crappy stick right?

Bretheren, I saw the title to this thread and came running!

IMO, the Series JJ Maduro is #1, followed closely by a San Cristobal and Cuban Classic (Black Label) figurado. He also blended the 5 Vegas Miami line, which is definitely my favorite in that series and an everyday go-to smoke for me. Has anyone tried the My Father label recently released? I'm dying to get my hands on one of these, but have no local B&M and haven't found a 5'er on C-bid yet. (yes, i'm cheap, so sue me)

longknocker · 11-17-2008, 08:06 AM

Haven't tried the Cuabo yet, but my fav. so far is the JJ Belicoso! Delic.!

Smokin Gator · 11-17-2008, 08:09 AM

I like the 601 greens, DPG blues and Cuban Classics, the San Cristobals, the Cuboas... do you get the picture:-)???

I tell you though... my absolute favorite is the Tat Noella. I can't get enough of that smoke!!

wayner123 · 11-17-2008, 10:41 AM
