We were discussing this cigar the other day, (the box pressed robusto) I am curious to hear from those who went out and picked some up? I am so surprised at how good these cigars are! I had two again last night with some friends and it was an across the board hit. For those who have not tried, you must.

that's interesting for I don't really care for the other Flor de Oliva's, I am gradually working my way through a bundle of the short torpedoes, I find Duques much better when I just want pure power. In fact I suspect the Flor De Oliva's are seconds, aren't these made by the same people as Perdomo? I also suspect they are like in training cigars, what I mean made by newer rollers that start out on this and then work up to the premium cigars, kind of like beef jerky, scrape up what's left on the floor and make it into meat (cigars in this case). Mind you, what is on the floor of this cigar factory is still not bad.

my mistake it appears, I just went to the CI home page and apparently these are made in some other factory, but I still maintain my other suspicions, now I see five packs of the Cameroon are up for auction, you have convinced me of the need to bid for one.

As stated is previous posts, I think this line in general is blah. Your hunches may be accurate and would not be surprising. These sediments are exactly why I am surprised with the grand cameroon robusto. Can't say the torpedo will perform the same.
