I finally did a side by side and while they are in the same family, they are NOT Drew Estates Liga Privada #9s. They just aren't.

The mystery continues.

(obsessed much?)

Funny this thread popped back up today as I just ordered a box of the 681s yesterday after realizing they are a great smoke after snagging a 5er on Famous' auction site. Wasn't advertised but they came with a free 5er and free shipping so that's 30 smokes delivered for $99. That's Diesel money and honestly they kick the Diesels a$$ and I really enjoy the Diesels.

Yeah I loved the extra 5'er I got with my last box. I may be picking up another box of these just to put away and see what happens. I love these things too much to ever worry about running out.

There is a fiver of the robustos up on CM right now. Think I will try these and see if they do taste like the LP #9.

Alas! Gone forever!

If anybody's got a line on a box of the ph681s they're willing to part with (or, erm... 10) I'd make it worth your while.

Why WHY didn't I buy 10-15 boxes when they were around?

Harrumpf.

Spoke with a Drew Estates guy. They're a blend they made rather a long time ago (definitely not the LP9) and they became "681s" long after Drew stopped selling them.

No worries...

I'm probably speaking out of turn myself, anyway.

It's not likely we'll ever get PH 681s again. However, we're still trying. For that reason, I'm not confirming nor denying anything.

I see. I've only been smoking for a bit less than 2 years and came across them early. Just one of my favorite smokes of all time. I was stoked when people started saying it's the LP9 since at least they're "in production." Price be damned as long as they're available. But after side-by-siding them a couple times it's just not true.

I have a few kicking around, but when they disappeared from the site I nearly had a heart attack. So now I'm starting to really forage around the internet for any I can find.

Plus now I'm starting to cast a wider net to fill that flavor spot. It's gonna be tough. I've smoked a lot of things that could be called "in the same family" that just didn't come close.
