Cigars what you smoking.

They were on the scorcher deals on Cigar Page. $30 for a 10pack, I guess I will have some more to try…

The price is right. I mighta got em too. I’m a little full on storage currently so I’m trying to only grab singles and buying what I know I like. Trying to get rid of the cooler/Tupperware thing and get everything in my cabinet.

Let us know how they are though.

I grabbed a 10 pack of San Lotano Requiem Maduro for $38 there & are around $35 for a 5pack on other sites.

Illusione

I’ve never had the one you’re talking about but I’ve had the oval and liked it pretty well

 

[JimBear]

I had a Tabak after dinner

I am going to have this Onyx Reserve Churchill my buddy’s dad gave me. It is very light weight/density for a Churchill & with a very easy/light draw.

 

[JimBear]

This Onyx is just a cigar, imo. The burn was great & the ash held on in about 1/3’s but was lacking in any flavor to me. I won’t be buying any.

@ jakethesnake

Have you had these blue label Don Pepins?
These on Cigar Page don’t have the original label band.




But these on Cbid have the original label band

No I’ve never seen them without the secondary. Except for super super old ones. But those bands were different. Maybe they’re changing the label. I even checked my Coronas just thought maybe the corona didn’t have it but everything I have does have the original on it.

 

[jakethesnake]

Seems if you zoom in on the box it has the secondary band. Maybe just a modified image

Yes, I see that now. I eyeballed the one you sent me then looked at the pictured one on the sites. I am planning on grabbing some, probably not those Exclusivos ( Presidentes ) ; a 9.2” cigar might be a bit much.

 

[jakethesnake]

So I’m theory could you cut a presidente in half and have a couple robusto

Try that sucker first. Just to make sure. Lotta guys really like em. I am gonna have one soon. If you like them super well I will say this they age well. Very well

 

[jakethesnake]

Corona. I will say this is a rare Occitan example where I prefer the toro. I think the extra filler levels this blend out a tad. Still excellent

 

[jakethesnake]

Gonna give this a go

How was it ?

 

[JimBear]

I am going to have this one on the way to the ethanol plant.

 

[jakethesnake]

How was it ?

It was really good. They’re discontinued too I guess. If they were easy to get I’d recommend them

That bueso you’re smoking is my favorite out of that line Pretty respectable smoke

It is raining & windy here, maybe the humidity had a negative effect on this one; the burn wasn’t great & the flavors were ok but not as bold as the black label The Project.

Really enjoy Oliva. I always feel like they showcase a raw cacao or bakers chocolate flavor.

Big fan myself. I think they’ve got a line for everyone
