Two of my favorite smaller NCs, along with the old school La Vieja Habana Silencios.

Really? Or are you just being funny?
Reason I ask is because I tried all the La Vieja Habanas and "The Early Years" and they were some of the most gawdawful things I've ever smoked.
Especially the La Vieja Naturals. Man, were they horrible.
They were super cheap, borderline free on cbid, that's why I got them all. Even the maduro couldn't redeem the batch.

No, truly. They changed the blend a few years ago, and those are nothing like the originals, Scott. But back in 2004-2005, I went through several boxes of 40, and they were awesome. If they hadn't changed the blend, regardless of smoking mostly CCs now, I would still be smoking them.

Like Tom, I was a huge fan of the Silencios. You will not find a better example of "they sure don't make 'em like they used to"

You know I'd love to. I remember how much we enjoyed those. I wish I could buy more.
