I got a 5 pack of the Legends Series - Puros Indios and smoked one tonight.

It is a nice cigar. Great construction, the burn is good, no problems and it has a great taste.

Now, my question is.......

Has anyone tried the others? If so, which ones did you like best?

Perdomo's are great for the price you can get them at here on CBID. I smoke atleast one a day it seems like.

Perdomo 1

Camacho 2

Matasa 3

Puros a distant 4

I've tried all 4, and I agree that the Perdomo is the best by far.

Different opinion here. Camacho is far superior to the other three IMHO. Perdomo would rank #2 with the other two tied for third with both being too mild for my taste.

I think they are all good in their own way. The Matasa is probably my favorite by a thin margin. Although the Puros Indios lines aren't normally my favorites, I have to agree that their Legends entry is a great smoke.

Matasa is leaps and bounds the best available!

The Perdomos are very good. The Camacho was disappointing. I really tried too, as I've liked everything that's come out of Caribes' capable hands. I just got nothing from them. Other than a slight pepper roughness at the start, it settled into flat no flavor, no strength. I thought I must have gotten a bad batch, so Kazama generously gave me one of his to compare. The result was the same. Humidity, age (couple month spread), accompanying beverage were variable, all with the same conclusion. I think maybe I was born without the corresponding taste bud that is triggered by the flavors in this blend, as it really is the only Caribe cigar that hasn't agreed with me.

I do look forward to trying the PI, and MATASAs.

The Puros Indios is the only one I've tried so far, and while the first one (I always hold back a stick from the freezer-treatment) wasn't promising, only a couple of weeks in the humidor made a big difference. I like them.

So far, I have tried them all many times over.

1. Perdomo

2. Camacho (really close)

3. Puros

4. Matasa

The Camacho almost scored extra points for almost making me heave. Damn, that thing is freaking strong.
