Ortega Serie D - Page 2

N2 GOLD · 09-28-2012, 07:26 PM

Thanks for the review sounds like a must try...

These are great! But I think the naturals are much better.

Going to be trying one in about 45 minutes... Thanks Dan

Great review Dan! I tried the natural yesterday and expect to try the maduro today in the same vitola for comparison. Just to see if I want to jump into a box of one or the other (or both lol). I've been a huge fan of the EO lines and so far I'm impressed with Mr. Ortega's solo effert. If they can keep the consistancy of the Cubao/601 lines, which I wouldn't expect to be a problem using the My Father factory, I'm positive these should be a great success.

Let us know which one wins Lucky... I have only had the natural, but I am sure the maduro would be very tasty...

I enjoy both wrappers, but the maduros have even better flavor in my opinion. His next series is set for launch in January.

Great review, Dan. The maduro is the better of the two, IMHO, but both are good cigars. I prefer the #7 (corona size).

Hey Rob. Just finished the maduro no. 7 and I think I'm gonna have to go against the majority here and say I kind of preferred the natural wrapper a little better. Both were pretty good smokes but the maduro tasted a little young to my pallet and I couldn't pull the cocoa or rich spice flavors I usually look for in a maduro cigar. I will have to tuck a few away and see what a 6 month nap in the humi will do.
