Impressions are one thing but you should never draw conclusions about a cigar based on a sampling of one or just a few sticks from the same box/lot.

I agree with you Peter. I am willing to try some more. What I meant to say was the one I had didn't really impress me. Thats why I added maybe I got a bad one.

A lot of people really like them, I'm sure I just got a bad apple.

WOW! This surprises me, Josh! This for me has been one of the most consistent and flavorful cigars to date and I have smoked quite a few of them now.

Did you have the Habano version? Give them another shot.

I will for sure.

Scott (Cobra03) kindly sent me one a while back. It was a decent smoke but not all that flavorfull........

Do you guys consider the 5 Vegas "A", La Aroma De Cuba, Oliva V, or the Cain 550 to have a pepper flavor profile?

Hurry and blow through to the pepper-est cigars. Once your tolerance is pegged, you can start working your way back down and find flavor and nuances in less peppery cigars that you didn't know existed before.

At least that was my 'curve', though grossly oversimplified.

I picked up a box of the non-pepin rolled Padilla 1932s last year and they are real pepper bombs. I'm hoping they'll mellow with more rest, because they aren't hitting the spot like last year.

Drew Estate acid is said to be working on infusing a cigar with ghost/habanero/and other various peppers.

Now I have to check my local stores for a Punnisher

I've actually got my eye on a fiver/box right now. If I end up getting either, I'lll let you know!

Chemyst · 07-28-2012, 09:54 PM

I find a lot of DPG cigars feature pepper.
Ashton San Cristobals are a fav. The newer
SC Elegancia is a bit more subtle, but still
peppery.

murcielago belicoso
slap me at the face till make me wanna put it down...

Dunkel · 07-29-2012, 07:26 AM

As mentioned before DPG Blue, MOW Puro Authentico and Murcielago. Also 5 Vegas Miami is peppery most times.

kelmac07 · 07-29-2012, 08:32 AM

Also add the DPG Series JJ Maduro to this list...love the spice on these.

Ciro · 07-29-2012, 08:45 AM

I get a nice pepper kick from the CAO Brasilia.

Garbandz · 07-29-2012, 09:07 AM

The new Pepin Los Antilles is peppery to the nub,and the price point is agreeable......

s15driftking · 07-29-2012, 10:42 AM

For pepper, the LFD Digger was quite an endurance of pepper. The CuAvana Punisher incinerated my lips. I have only smoked one and it was on the golf course. I have smoked two Room 101 OSOK and the first 3rd of each cigar seemed very peppery.

oooo35980 · 07-29-2012, 11:16 AM

I tend to stay away from anything that is supposed to be peppery, that being said, the CAO LX2 is probably the pepperiest cigar I've ever tried to smoke. Unpleasantly peppery I'd call it, but some people like em I guess.
