They sure do look like an interesting smoke. Maybe they are worth a try for the price. Thanks for your input!

well, there's 25 up now and 3 days out to closing, and i do see them on here from time to time, though i'm sure it'll be more than i can afford. :/ but they do sound good to me! anyway, the cbid description is:

"A tremendous value from the Cuevas and Toraño families....now on closeout. Sergio A. Cuevas and his family, in a manufacturing partnership with the highly-regarded cigar making talents of the Toraño family, currently makes in their Dominican facility some of the top blends around. These brands include Carlos Toraño Signature, La Perla Habana, Gurkha, and many more. SACUBA is interesting because of the value it represents. It’s a mixed filler cigar crafted using many of the cut leaves from the production of such brands produced in the factory, a blend of fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua, all of Cuban-seed origin. Made with quality aged tobaccos, SACUBA is perfect for less-than-special occasions, outdoor activities, etc. Medium-bodied, easy draw, a little soft in construction."

I received a box last monday, smoked one tuesday. Didn't care for at first but once I got past one third it started to be pretty good. Would buy again and think they will get better after some time in the Humi
