Any comments/opinions on this cigar? There seems to be some "deals" on this brand, I believe they went bottom up.

Oh yea...here's a joke for you.......A blonde decides to try horseback riding, even though she has had no lessons or prior experience.

She mounts the horse unassisted & the horse immediately springs into motion. It gallops along at a steady & rhythmic pace, but the blonde begins to slip from the saddle. In terror, she grabs for the horse's mane, but cannot seem to get a firm grip. She tries to throw her arms around the horse's neck, but she slides down the side of the horse anyway. The horse gallops along, seemingly impervious to its slipping rider. Finally, giving up her frail grip, she leaps away from the horse to try & throw herself to safety.

Unfortunately, her foot has become entangled in the stirrup & she is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as her head is struck against the ground again & again. As her head is battered against the ground, she is mere moments away from unconsciousness when... the Wal-Mart Manager comes and unplugs the horse.

I purchased some of the white label diablo's and was pretty happy with them. So much so that I bought the white labels (didn't know that at the time) which I found to be good as well but TOO TIGHT TO SMOKE!. I am giving them some time in the 'dor to hopefully straighten them out, the little bastards. Good & Cheap that's what I say. If they come around in the 'dor it will have been worth it. Make sure you get a good deal on them and you won't be disappointed.

I've never had one of the white labels but have had several of the red label (Sumatra wrapper) stogies...They're a pretty good cigar for the price..They're not exceptional..If you purchase a box, expect to get a few duds as in any other brand when buying a box.

I purchased a few five packs of the red label and found them boring.....it's not that they were bad, they were acceptable but simply uneventful. There are better smokes out there for the same bargain price..ie. the 5 Vegas that were just on special.

Bought a box of Churchills (white label) from cigarbid back in February for around $20 (they had a special) and found it well worth the money. A decent smoke, creamy and mild if that's your thing, just make sure you massage it to prevent a tight draw. Burn was even (had about 10 of the 25 and aging the rest)

Bought a box of the white label churchills from CI 3 - 4 months ago for $20. Thought it was a pretty good smoke for the buck. Burned evenly, fair amount of smoke and good construction. Not a dud in the whole box. Didn't have a 'dor then, so I smoke every one except for one I have now in the 'dor.
