Pinar del Rio Oscuro
What are your thoughts on this cigar? Have heard good things about the Sun Grown, and as I am not normally a practicing maduro smoker anymore, haven't been keeping up with that. Back in the late 90s, most maddies became awefully one-dimensionaly and so I moved one.
Thanks.

Personally, I think the real winner in the Pinar del Rio lineup is the Classico Exclusivo (Connecticut) Lancero. |

Re: Pinar del Rio Oscuro
I smoked my first one of these today...was not impressed. Was rather bland...expected more from this stick.

IMHO they were pretty much one dimensional, I was not super pleased with this stick, I expected it to be better. The SG however was much better.

Re: Pinar del Rio Oscuro
I had one the other day and I loved it. A good price for a box of them came up yesterday on Monster and I pulled the trigger. They should be here in a week and if you'd like maybe we could swap a few if you'd like.

Re: Pinar del Rio Oscuro
I like the HSG a lot more than the Oscuro. I plan on keeping the box in the back for awhile to let it age a bit. I think that the Oscuro wrapper is what is holding it back as it has many of the same flavors as the Sun Grown.

Re: Pinar del Rio Oscuro
Interesting how everyone can have different opinions. Personally, I really like this cigar, but that's just my two cents.

Re: Pinar del Rio Oscuro
I picked up the sampler from Monster a while back so I've got three types. I'll have to give the other one's a try soon. But I've got so many new ones to try with so little time.
