I had my first JJ maduro last week and I gotta say that I'm hooked.

Col. Kurtz · 02-20-2009, 05:10 PM

Anyone here tried the Old Henry house blend? Intrigued, looking to add to the yard gar stash.

I wasn't a fan. If your looking for a yardgar from Holts, I'd try Boardwalk (non-pepin) or Benchmade. They are both a lot cheaper and taste much better IMHO.

I enjoyed the Fundadores from Pepin as a GREAT yardgar.

Anyone had the Old Henry's though?

(love the John Candy line... what does that mean anyway? He always had these great lines that made little sense, but were hilarious)

Thanks! Just did some figuring on the Old Henry, $4+ per stick???? That's a blue, or a 601 from cbid, and I'm sure they're much better. Now I'm going through a Benchmade thing, but looking for the next DPG obsession. For me, Benchmade is a pretty good smoke for the money... Now, about these Fumadors

What's the flavor profile on these? What DPG is it most like?

Thanks

I find the Old Henrys creamy with some leather,cocoa and spice. Not as spicy as many Pepins ( and I love the spice ) but something about these I really like. Find them very smooth but full of flavor begining to end. I guess they would be somewhat like a San Cristobal.

mastershogun · 03-05-2009, 07:56 PM

anyone know where i can find a list of all the cigars he blends and the factory?

Mikey202 · 03-06-2009, 11:11 AM

just bought a box of DPG Black Label 2001 6" x 60 rg and a fiver of 5 Vegas Miami "Knuckles" 4.5" x 60 from the Devil Site.

So many DPG cigars..... so little time. I really like the DPG Black Label and this will be my first 5 Vegas Miami.

KidRock · 03-06-2009, 11:43 AM

I smoke many Tat Reds. I was kinda of suprised how much I like the Cabaiguan line. Can anyone give me some feedback on what size is there favorite? Have you also noticed that alot of them are plugged or is it just me? If I were to buy like 5 boxes of Cabaiguan Robusto Extras what would you put your humidity inside your vino at?

Just finished a DPG Blue "Firecracker" I got from Bao! Tremendous 25-30 minute smoke! Perfect with my morning coffee! Thanks, Bao!

longknocker · 03-08-2009, 08:07 AM

Thanks, Wayne for the list!

Which Tats are the "Brown"? Thanks!

longknocker · 03-13-2009, 07:24 AM

Just finished a DPG Tabacos Baez. Anyone know about this smoke? Milder than most DPGs (IMHO). Hints of pepper, but not nearly as good as the DPG Blue(My Favorite)!
