LOVED IT !!!! WOW, NOW I know what all the hype was about!! This was a FANTASTIC smoke! What a solidly packed cigar. So much tobacco, took more effort to clip the end than others. The voyage lasted approx. 1-3/4 hrs. What a ride!! Great full bodied smoke. Blew my socks off.. still can't find the left one!! Didn't want the journey to end. Tasted GREAT all the way down.. until a taste of burnt flesh..which was my FINGERS!! Burned them smoking it to the nub. Wish I had a clip.. do they sell clips on c-bid?

Thanks to all for bringing these to my attention!! Lowman is now... "Bucman"

Low

Also got a box of Peg Legs that I am ready to break into.. That will be my Tues. night smoke... the journey continues!!

Arrr-gghhhhhh! Avast ye swabbies! Ya say you haven't had the wind in your "Sails", well then ye sure won't be ready for ye own "Peg Leg"!

Doesn't matter if you have to break out the cathecism/bar mitzvah money...do it! Be warned, this ain't no sissy smoke. This is a real cigar that'll put powder back in your cannon!

Dead men tell no tales!

C-Bid accidentally doubled my order and sent me two shipments of the Full Sails...which they picked up on :o(
Trish from cust serv. called me and asked what I wanted to do..Keep them or send the extra box back. At that time (before smoking my first), I told her to send a UPS pickup label and I will send the extra box back. Now I am having second thoughts...What should I do??

I'm sure I can squeeze them into my humi somewhere!!

KEEP THEM!

... you will be surprised at how fast they will disappear, and how hard they may be to get (at least here, with all the raving going on) in the future.

Besides ... you could be the 'KING' of the trades board if you wanted, commanding premium smokes like certain OpusX, PAM ... etc.

Damn! ... how times have changed ... when I first mentioned Bucanero's or even 5 or 6 months ago, all I got was a lot of silence ...

Ohhhhhh ... sounds like someone here is feeling a bit slighted ... LOL!

Just joking, Steve ...

You have to take into consideration that at the time you mentioned them, very few had access to them and most (including myself) hadn't even heard of them.

Now that CI/CB has them, and more folks here have had the opportunity to try them ... well, you get the picture!

Apparantly, Mike dug into MY side of the sweater'dor this weekend and TOOK one of MY Buc Full Sails (graciously gifted to me from DMV)...

He said that he tried a new smoke and really liked it. I was happy to hear it and asked which one of his new cigars he tried...until he told me the name of it...

The rest is history!

Just finished a Full Sail, courtesy of DrMadd Vibe. I liked it. Not as much as you guys do, but a very fine cigar. A bit too strong for me. I think I prefer my HdM Seleccion Royales. I know, more Bucaneros for you.

jreddoch --- just take a step down to the El Capitan Maduro or Peg Leg, or even the Clasico Maduro! Those would be right up your alley ... medium-bodied.

Or try the Windjammer Blend if you want a mild (but very tasty) smoke ...

Just tried a full sail today (also courtesy of the good Dr.). To be honest, I wasn't overwhelmed by it. It's a good cigar but not a great one. Maybe it was just me. Will have to try another one.
