Personal favorites have been the Crystal, Espresso, Double Espresso. One of those cigars that people will knock because of the price point, usually the same neophytes that will say they don't see anything special about them and they prefer $2 sticks that are better and have never actually had one.
The blends are unique and made with excellent quality tobaccos that are already well aged and offer a really outstanding smoke. They age beautifully btw.
Great cigar but I don't think they're made in the Bahamas.
Zody the double espresso is a CI exclusive I believe.
I believe this is correct, but I'm torn on it.
If it's a good cigar, who gives a **** where it's made?
The story goes on from there, but shortly after this happened, I was at the NFL player's PH and all that was left was Graycliff' Candellas. I took a pass.
Double Espressos aren't a CBid exclusive, the shpo I belong too was the first to bring Graycliffs into Ohio and the owner has maintained very tight relationship with Graycliff. They're offered in those robusto/short churchills CBid offers and a few other vitolas not seen on CBid, the a Double Espresso coms in a shaggy foot torpedo as well.
The Ctrystals when they first came out were more like the Espresso, a little too strong so they were toned down and the people that liked the original Crystal blends spoke up and that's where the Espresso came about. Then to amp up an already heady blend the Double Espresso was released. Avalino Laura himself RIP was the one that pushed for the Double Espresso.
For the Bengals Colts game the shpo owner had a members event and offered the Espresso prototypes for us, they were from '03 and being 12 years old they were a helluva great cigar! Lots of of burnt finger nubbing those.
Analino passed but his son Abell is keeping the old ways of cigar blending and rolling alive at Graycliff.
