I really like the Populares. The others are ok.

The Inaugural is the WORST cigar I have ever had in my life...hated it..and the Short Run is a close second tied with the Acid Nasty. These taste like sweet aromatic pipe tobacco mixed with a nasty cone incense smell...YUCK!

I paid full retail $ then waited 2 months for a box of EPC Inaugural Editions and was so disappointed I would never purchase anything else they come out with. I have had them aging and try one about every 3 months, while somewhat improved over arrival they are still a pretty crappy cigar.

I've had a few, based on the one's I've had I think they are pretty good but just not for me. I think folks who really like a stronger cedar flavor in the cigars they smoke will love them, that's just not me.

If I did not already have good reason for not buying anymore EPC products this would certainly keep me from buying them. Posted on CI Banter this morning:

Regarding EPC - We just ordered this line. However, it is brick and mortar only and cannot be sold online.

That's odd, I bought all of mine online.

I completely agree with you. I've smoked a box worth or more and none of them "sucked" in my opinion. Im more of a full bodied smoke guy myself too...but it is a very balanced smoke that I would recommend to anyone that is looking for a smooth mild/medium bodied cigar. Now the 2010 is a different smoke all together, and one of my favorites right now. His "core" line is also a very good smoke for the price and i'd recommend it to anyone.

One of my favorite sticks.

The Short Run is one of my favorites! The LE 10 is superb but not sure if it's worth twice the price of a Short run.
