Legado de Pepin???

These have been out for a little while and I haven't heard a peep. Who has smoked one or more and what do you think of them?

I smoked one a few weeks ago, and while it wasn't anything special, I found it to be a decent cigar with 'Pepin-esque' flavors, although on the lighter side of medium bodied (for me, anyway).

I agree. You can buy better overruns, cheaper from CI right now...

I've had a few and IMHO not worth it, for a few dollars more per stick you can get DPG Blacks or Blues.

Hmm kinda sad that DPG allowed a decent but not stellar stick to be called Legado de Pepin.

Of course a mild Pepin stick might be a smooth marketing move. I would guess that CI's customers tend towards milder sticks than the asbestos-mouths that hang here on CA.

+1 on the milder side.maybe they want to cover the market and went toward milder.......
