Don't know anything about them, but they do look pretty tasty.

I bought the sampler two years ago and much preferred the #4, although I generally like a smaller ring gauge. Well worth the coin, but I never seemed to buy any more. I remember being surprised by how much worse one of them was, perhaps I got two bad sticks. To answer your question, I think I liked the #1 better than the #2, but it's been a while, so I'd just get the sampler and try them for myself (again).

Are they strong as they say they are? Says they pack a punch. But I heard the #1 is more medium.

I'd like to buy a 5 pack of those but I'm not into cigars that will knock me on my butt.

I didn't find them to be that strong, but YMMV. They are Nica puros, so they ain't mild.

Another awesome review Dan, your reviews will make me go bankrupt.

These are strikingly similar to Illusiones in the same size

That being said I like the #1 better since I found it a tad more complex and flavorful than the #2
