The Griffin's Prestige

RevSmoke · 02-12-2009, 06:21 PM

BOTL & SOTL,

I was looking through my main humidor today, and discovered something I don't hear mentioned here - The Griffin's, specifically the Prestige line. I haven't had one of these in a few years. The cello is dingy brownish/yellow. I want to say these have been in here since about 1997 or so.

I have been enjoying fuller-bodied cigars, so these haven't been touched in a long time. They were excellent smokes, although more on the mild side of things. they are beautifully constructed.

However, I am curious what the opinion of people here on CA is of these sticks.

I've smoked them over the years Todd.Like you said,a mild smoke,even milder than say a Ashton white label.
I wouldn't go looking for them myself anymore,but it is a good,well made cigar.

I had one of the Limited Edition XXIV 08 a few weeks back. These are the ones in the glass tube.
I loved it. I will be buying a box soon.
