Famous Nic 3000 bundle?????
Just had my second one tonight and it was fantastic. I found it to be full bodied. I tasted mint in both sticks and found it pretty complex. I normally don't care for a full bodied smoke but it was fantastic.
I loved it so much that I went to Famous to look into buying a bundle. The website says the bundles are no longer available. Anyone know why??? I know they have 5 packs but I was more interested in the bundle...free shipping on the bundle. Is this permanent or have they done this before until they replenish their stock? Thanks fellas |

They'll come around again.
I agree they are pretty good for a bundle smoke. After about a year I get a lot of coco and coffee notes out of 'em. |

Re: Famous Nic 3000 bundle?????
I just went to the Famous Site and some Bundles are available toros and torpedos, some of the singles aren't though. Unless you are talking about something else (robustos),
toros http://www.famous-smoke.com/cigars/s...%201000111&Ne=

Re: Famous Nic 3000 bundle?????
As a bundle smoker, I've had a lot of experience with "cheaper" sticks. The Famous Nic 3000 is probably one of...if not, the....best bundle stick out there. Or at least they used to be, I haven't had one in about a year. I had to stop getting them...I loved them so much I smoked too many and my tongue felt like it was suing for separate maintenance.

Re: Famous Nic 3000 bundle?????
The original release of the N3K was unfrigginbelievable - hopefully they are staying somewhat close to the original blend.....

The OR Famous Nic 3000's are one of my top 5 sticks of all time. The new ones are about 90% close to what the old ones were. They are still very good. I usually prefer fresh sticks, but if you can wait around 6 months at a higher RH, these become really chocolaty and smooth.

Are the Torpedos pretty much identical in flavor profile? |

This line has VERY good blend consistency and continuity, throughout all the sizes. Quite possibly my favorite NC, and ranks right up there with my favorite CCs. |

I fully agree with borndead. I find because of the box press I get a better burn with the Torp's, but that may just be in my mind. Can't really go wrong with any of the sizes.

Re: Famous Nic 3000 bundle?????
I think they are good, but quite harsh when young. If you let them sit for a year, they become a really great cheap smoke. When available, I highly recommend getting a few bundles and letting them sit.
