"Retro" Smokes

TJtorpedo · 04-20-2012, 02:55 PM

Was just smoking a Punch Rare Corojo that I hadn't revisited in years, and it got me thinking, what were some of your favorite smokes in the pre-Pepin era or when boutiques blew up on the scene? Was it all Fuentes and Littos? I came into the hobby in '05, so I don't have a good frame of reference for anything before that. For instance, I remember when the CAO Brazilia came out and was a big deal.

Just wondering if there are any hidden gems back then that can still be had.
