I was looking and outside of YouTube, couldn’t find a review. There are some famously good prices out there, that’s for sure.

Yes, same here. Could only find a couple You Tube reviews. After sale price and discount we're talking under $1.50 for a DE cigar. I may have to grab a box on blind faith.

I grabbed a box of robs from some other place for $29 (after my discount). Very well made cigar. Great looking Ecuadorian connie wrapper over Nicaraguan long fillers. Firm and well packed with a long, slow burn. Pretty much what you would expect from Drew Estates. Though different, it reminded me more of a UC Shade, than your typical "creamy" Connecticut wrapped cigar. I'd give the UC Shade higher points, but it was still a very good cigar. I will definitely be getting more.

I just smoked one of these side by side with a UC Shade. The wrappers look identical, and they both have the same double cap, but the filler is darker in the Olde Penn. The UC Shade is denser packed, burns longer, and is more full body. Not a UC Shade for sure, but still a very nice cigar, especially for the insanely cheap price. I just didn't want anyone to get the false impression that these where the same cigar.
