What size? The robustos and torpedos are nice, but need some attention to stay lit. The churchills should be dried out first before smoking. The pequenos need some serious nap time. Other than that, they are a good medium bodied smoke.

Overall, Perdomo is among my favorite lines ... IMHO, "The Cigar" is a good smoke ... if you've got trouble keeping it lit, it may be overhumidified and would benefit from "dry-boxing" for a short time ... also, be sure you've got it lit properly ... taking the time to be sure you've got a cigar well and evenly lit will enhance your smoking experience on every cigar you smoke ...

MrMean speaks the truth and lots of people like them. Myself I'm partial to the Reserve and Estate lines but thats just me.Smoke what ya like/like what ya smoke.

I agree with you SteveS. I just believe the churchill needs a lot more than a dry box. I got about 10 of em sitting here next to me on the desk and they are consistant with getting about halfway through and turning skunky.
Your comment about proper lighting is so true on many "bad burn" encounters. A lot of "problems" with cigars can be related to the how to's of lighting a cigar.
JJ those estate selection maduros are awesome.

Won my first 5-pack of the 'pequenos' last week ... smoked one, and Mr.Mean is right. I wasn't that impressed (kind of flat), but I do like the line. Hopefull the reat will get better.

'The Cigar' for the most part, is a pretty decent cigar ...

Frankie ... didn't I give you one once when we were at 'The Print'? Maybe it was at the Tracy warehouse?

... maybe that was Bob ... LOL!
