My New Favorite Cigar Is.........

icantbejon · 11-13-2008, 03:39 PM

I had two of these not too long ago and really enjoyed them. I almost went onto CI and got them myself. Then decided that I was too close to going home and didn't feel like shipping more cigars to myself (cause the load I have to ship now is going to cost me a pretty penny as is). When I get home, I'm going to grab some more I do believe.

Good review on a good cigar.

I've got about 60 or so of these bad boys, with the latest group coming in this week. Bought on CBid for $34/20 plus shipping.

Predominant tastes of coffee & dark chocolate, similar to the Carlos Torano Exodus 1959, but less cedar & stronger kick. Never had a bad draw in the many I've had. Burn can sometimes be a bit off, though. Definitely a stick you want to let sit for 3-9 months before you light. And make sure you have enough time, as they last at least 2 hours or more.

Now, in fairness, this last bundle is the BEST price I've ever gotten on these.

Have taken a glance or two at these though I get put off by CI ads, so never picked any up. Well, I burned one on Halloween and that was a damn good smoke. It's definitely a cigar I'd be interested in keeping in the humi.
