I bought 2 boxes before the last big price hike. Paid $340, I think. Within 2 weeks or so, they had gone up to $425. That's a nope.

Unfortunately, that's the story for almost all the CCs I smoke.

Been enjoying the lanceros by Aladino lately. The corojo, Cameroon and Vintage Selection. The Maduro cazadore is more impressive than the lancero, imo.

All the Aladino cigars I have tried have been excellent, Greg.

60-63 is what I shoot for. The desktop is what I smoke from, so I'm not opening the cabinet all the time.

I'm gonna have to give Aladino another chance.

Shop here was running a special on Oliva so one of the ones I picked up was an Oliva V lancero. One of my favorite cigars in this size.

Just saw an article were they are coming out with a lancero for the Classic line soon, too.

I have tried everything they offer and all have been quite enjoyable except the Corojo Reserva. It's good too but not $4-5 better than the regular Corojo, imo. That is the only negative thing I have to say about Aladino. That's coming from a snob, too.

I believe I got my first Aladinos from you, Greg, and I've really enjoyed most of their stuff too.

I've had all the Aladino lanceros and enjoyed them all. The Vintage line is my go to though 100%

I think so, Greg, though I like them both.

Hey man, sorry for the late reply. I wasn't smoking cigars for 2 months (Covid).

I honestly don't know what is too dry. My humidors have gotten down to the high 50s a few times for a week or so, and the sticks were all fine.

Found my old fiver of the original Don Pepin lanceros. Going to try them with a friend. Fun to see how they all turned out.
