I wholeheartedly recommend them if you like maduros, especially if you like ones with a San Andreas wrapper. They're med-full bodied with a good amount of complexity. My current two favorite maduros are 601 Blue Robusto and DE Undercrown Corona Viva. I put the El Original right up there with them.
Island Smoke Shop has deals about every holiday weekend, so if you want to pick up a few to try they'll probably be on special for Columbus Day weekend. Or better yet, I can send you a couple to try if you pm me.

I'm going to have to add some of those Le Careme's to my To-Buy list; they sound tasty and Crowned Heads hasn't put out any duds so far in my book. I need to go by my B&M and see if they have any.

I like them, but I think they're overpriced; there are comparable smokes out there for several dollars cheaper per stick. So grabbing 'em on the Devil Site works for me!

Well 2 weeks ago I placed my first ever online order with CigarPlace and last Friday it arrived:





That is the CAO Champions II sampler with the travel humi. And since I got it, the sticks have been napping in my Tupperdor.
