Room 101 Namakubi Papi Chulo

Smoked this little 4x42 yesterday, and damn near lost my mind!
That is one fine little smoke bro's and sis' it started out with a peppery
punch, then transitioned into a very creamy and smooth smoke after the
1st inch, there were several transitions (fruit, spice, etc.) I really wish i could have found
a box and had the funds to buy them... The guy at the shop said the Toro's
down to the petite corona's are smoking great! He said the larger sizes are
not as good...

I should also note that the ash fell off at 1.5inches, and again with a half
inch left! At the end i almost burned my fingers!

How much are the little 4x42 going for?

Seems like they pack a punch in the flavor department, how are they strength wise? Would love to try one, just don't want it to knock me on my @$$.

Thanks for the mini review Excel. I know with these the feedback has been very mixed.

I've smoked 2 of these and I can concur they are astonishing... I was lucky enough at Shack to be handed one by the guy that held its release party... I think they run about $6.50 a piece... but they last about 45-50 mins where the Tat Petit Cazzie is about a .5 hr smoke for me.

I agree, smoked 1 and bought a box.

These are one of my go to sticks right now (1 box @ the HERF, 1 BOX smoked myself, and 1 BOX put away so far), but just remember there are less Papi Chulos' than the other sizes (i.e 400 Boxes of PCs compared to 1000 boxes of every other size)... meaning, get them while you can... with 40-60 CIGARMAGEDDON events scheduled, there is no way this will last.

Cigar has a light spice that builds with the strength, a subtle sweetness, and an overall leathery/woody character IMO... something different and refreshing.

...here is a picture for those who wanted one (from the shack herf - CG88s Papi Chulo ASH):
