They are that bad? Actually, Felipe Gregorio has made some pretty decent smokes, the Sinatra, for example. I don't care what others think, but I really like the Sinatra because it is extremely well constructed, draws easily, burns even and tastes pretty good. It's just a damn pretty cigar when it burns, with the black ring around the coal and the dark gray ash. Then, of course, we also have the nasty Wall Street ... stinky-winky!

My God!!! Slimboli and I agree on something 100%! I think the Sinatra is a very good cigar and fell victim to the retreat of "yuppies" and wanta be men who ran from the cigar craze, as they went on to the latest trends! I just won a box of Sinatra Robustos on the bid board for $22. Hard to argue with that deal, as they are very good and have a robust taste. The Warhol is OK, not that good but it makes a nice outdoor project cigar! Charlie

What are we talking about? Warhol is a below average cigar. Construction is good (like all F. Gregorio stuff), but the flavor is lacking. Not a dog rocket, but not worth even a buck a stick. The Sinatras, on the other hand, can be Fantastic. I say Can Be, because I don't care for the Sumatra, but the original Connecticut Shade was GREAT, and the MY WAY is out of this world but I did get a bad box of My Way. THey were inconsistent, loosely rolled, and tasted weak. CB took care of me ans switched them and the newer box is among my favorites. Who the hell was Andy Warhol anyways? What did he paint?

Warhol was a freak of the Arts, who made millions selling folks trendy pop art that really was nothing more than deco posters. He ran with the jet set and they caused his rise to the top! His cigars (the ones in question) are very nicely made and pretty enough, but carry little or no taste! Above dog rocket, but not much else...........backyard smoke if you are not paying attention to the cigar and maybe just want to have one in your hands. When they are all gone, no one will care!
