lets get some input on Astrals/
who likes em who dont!

Maduro's are okay. I bid mild and one dimensional.

four or five years ago, I used to smoke the perfeccions like crazy because they were a good figurado that was cheap. kind of creamy, with a medium body. the lujos also used to be very good. the other day, I was in a local shop and they had both at 10 bucks each. I laughed.

I haven't had one in a while. An ok cigar, smooth, a little mild for me. If the price is right I might buy some.

Astral Lujos a good morning second cup of coffee cigar. Lujos is light in body, smooth and creamy and I am working on my sixth box. I highly recommend them but for no more than $70-$75 for a box of 25.

Anybody tried the new Talanga valley version?

if you can buy a cigar brand at a liquor store or a grocery store or a VII-XI, don't. but even they won't buy the Savannah Slims (50) for $9.00 that i bid on and won.

If you like Astrals you might check out ******. They carry some of the Astrals without bands in plain boxes "overstocks" for about twenty bucks a box.

I've tried the Astral TVS and liked them. Astral is one of those brands that, for me, is a bit too mild, but the TVS were very much to my taste.
