These are a very nice smoke but I wish the price was a little more affordable. With Cali tax @ 47% plus State tax @ 8.25% it's tough to justify a box.

But I thought it was a review on an Esencia, not a Nub

Marc has got a winner with these smokes! I've talked to him several times. These cigars are really good. I'm partial to the smaller RGs!

Can you give an update on the PCs that Scott adjudged to have been too wet/young when we were doing the pre-release reviews? As far as I know he's the only one of us to have rec'd the PCs and you were saying they may have been rushed a bit but you expected them to be the best vitola...

I'd really like to pick some up when I get near them, the torps I had were really very good!

Hope sales and satisfaction are going well Marc
