Looking for something along the lines of a cu-avana punisher

Patchy2076 · 08-09-2016, 09:56 PM

I'm really looking along the lines of cu-avana punisher. Cannot find anything close. Does anyone have some suggestions?

I had to look up what a "cu- avana punisher" is - an in your face powerhouse - try a Bolivar - they're known to be on the stronger side with some wonderful notes - enjoy whatever you're smoking and welcome to the asylum!

Why?

I keed, I keed. Smoke what you like, like what you smoke.

I recall having a Punisher once, long ago.
Don't recall much in the flavors produced.
But if you're looking for a stronger, full-strength cigar, try:
Joya de Nigaragua Antano
Joya de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo
La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero
601 La Bomba

Eric is wise in these matters.

I tasted a Punisher. Once.
Heat from the pepper overwhelmed any semblance of tobacco. A novelty cigar that is nothing but a gimmick. Don't know of any other pepper infused cigars.

Hard to say. But I took two puffs and my lips were feelin' it for 15-20 minutes after. Not a pleasant experience (for me).

Raise? I believe you called.

My head is spinning just looking at that bad boy.

If your looking for the heat and spice, Man O War puro authentico.

Good call; that's one powerhouse little smoke!

I still have one of those Cu-Avana Punishers in my vinos.

And those that stated the LFD Chisel...strong and damn tasty stick right there....especially the maduro version.

Weelok · 08-14-2016, 06:46 PM

Man O War Ruination as well. It's been years since I had a Cu-Avana Punisher and I can't remember the taste but based upon some of the comments, I would think you would enjoy the Ruination and Puro by AJ Fernandez.

And if you hit CigarBid, they can be had for a pretty affordable price.
