What are your thoughts on Gispert cigars, the corona size in particular.

Considering a purchase. Thanks dogs

That's what I was gonna say... heheh...

Order a 5er of several different kinds and try them.

Just got off the phone with dpnewell,
the man, the myth. the legend.
He said he loves this cigar, ESPECIALLY in the corona size.

John, John, John, hubby says this is a good cigar for the price, not that he LOVES them. Not an Undercrown Shade or MF Connie, but a solid Connecticut wrapper smoke. He has tried both the Rob and the Corona, and he definitely prefers the Corona. He says that you should be able to pick these up for under $1.50 each.

Thanks all for the great replies. There is a monster deal right now for boxes of 15 at a certain other website.

go ahead and edit that....not good form....I just meant that there's not anything I can think of from either General, or Altadis that is worth hunting for...to me...hope you enjoy them

on the other hand, I did just get a great deal on 858SG (120/bx) - pm for details

I'm rescinding my recommendation to buy.......unless they're cheap......and you prefer Connies.

I think this is hilarious. The legend grows.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh . . . Did I say he LOVES them?
What I meant was . . . . He said they're "ah-ite".

The Gispert is a classic real deal cigar. It gets great reviews from nearly everyone. But i'm sure if I asked about some snooty cigar or trendy-ass cigar like a Gurkha " kings fire' or whatever new crap I wouldn't be getting these bull**** responses

That might be a typo.......could be a "trendy, ass cigar", like a dog turd

you got here just in time.
We needed a lesson.

I'm trying to think of a word for cheap, and your handle.....

Goddamn racist picks ruined a perfectly awesome word.

*sigh*

*******ly

Did you just make that up Frank??

Leave it to the old Jewish guy to know that one.

Try parsimonious, it's a good word too. Especially if you like parsnips.

well this has certainly taken a fun turn.
you guys are nuts.

I think that's where Hank is looking for his tea bagging tutorial. He's going for nostalgia.

Esther don' play dat......

Aunt Esther is funnier.

Meh. Even at a buck fiddy or less each they aren't worth the time imo.

Just to clarify, the Gispert is what I'm talking aboot. Not Auunt Esther or the cookies.

UPDATE:

I just got back from the shop with a Gispert in Churchill size and I'm smoking it right now.

This cigar has a smooth, luscious draw. The conneticut shade wrapper is tan and has a nice sheen to it.

The cigar is delivering some nice cedar and toasty notes with perhaps a delicate hint of a vegetal character.

Will be back with more as I get further in on this beauty.

UPDATE:

At the halfway mark the cigar gets heartier, providing some nourishing coffee flavors. The cigar is still mild, maybe a tad too mild for some, but on this gray Sunday it is a relaxing respite from the drudgery of the work-week

I know this weather is whack
