I recently puchased some cigars from CB. I would like some feedback from you all. I know all to well how you guys feel about Dark Sharks. However lets try these and see what kind of a response I get.

Indian Tabac Classic Warriors

Cuban Knock-Off by Augusto Reyes

Romeo and Julieta Toro

Punch Rothschild Double Maduro

Astral Favorito

5 Vegas

Cohiba Red Dot Pequenos

Sinatra Robusto

Thanks agian.......... and go easy on me.

The 5 Vegas is a good smoke for the money. If you like nicaraguan smokes, then you'll enjoy the 5 Vegas. The Cohiba Red Dot Pequenos is an exceptional small cigar. I typically don't like the small cigars that come in tins, but these are well made, draw well without being too hot, and have a fairly complex flavor for such a small smoke. As for the Sinatra's, you will receive the Sumatra wrapped version. They don't hold a candle to the original CT Shade wrapper version. A bit of spice in the delivery, but fairly flat after that. If you can find the CT shade version get them. Or purchase the My Way Torpedo when they go up for bid.

Indian Tabac, Punch and the R&J are rockets... stay away from them. You're better off sticking with the Arturo Felipe and Thomas Hinds. Tell all your friends too, so that they may bid on these fine products also.

You go, delarob! Do you want a fine, well-made, strong and tasty cigar? Then stay away from the Cupido Toro Negros! It's good to see someone other than rookie and myself taking up the cause to keep others away from all these crappy cigars.

Actually, Sgt., of the ones you mention, I've always heard good things about the Punch (and Hoyo de Monterrey) Rothschild dbl-maduro. I believe this is one rookie and mean have warned others to stay away from!

If you are new to smoking, the R&J is a nice mild smoke. 5 Vegas are an excellent smoke at a great price, but their Churchill is kinda "grassy" - they need aging as the other Vegas I have ordered are all good on arrival. The Punch Rothchild is my favorite quick smoke.

sgt. slaughter, every cigar you mentioned (although by the way you wrote it looks like one cigar) is below average. the only one that peeks it' head slightly above the mendoza line, is the 5 vegas. Operative word being slightly.

Sgt. Slaughter, must be an old WWF fan!?! Always liked the Sarge. Indian Tabacs are really good cigars and I like the 5 Vegas Torpedos and any R & J (although on the mild side) are good. Agree with Gaiter try the My Way by Sinatra (Greigro) they are really a well made smoke. Charlie

All crap except for the Punch Rothchild Double Maduros (and ONLY the double maduro) which are good but not excellent...The ones that I try to avoid like white powder spilling out of envelopes is the Santa Rosas...They are total crap that will give you severe hemorroids if smoked (or even bid on for that matter)

Holy cow! I smoked a Santa Rosa the other day and I think I actually have a Hemorroid! That or very stubborn dingleberry!

side note: I was waiting for Waney to show up. LOL

So it was a Santa Rosa I smoked the other day. Sheess... gotta stay away from these, can hardly sit.

Uh, just where are you guys putting your cigars?

Sgt. (are you in the service? One of my sons wears the stripes), you might try the Sportsman's Reserve if you like the Nicraguans (they are truly dog rockets and must be priced accordingly, so don't pay more than $30 for a bundle of 25). The 5 Vegas and Indian Tabacs are good choices, IMHO.

I've been away for a while. I was in the hospital with a severe case of roids. I'm hoping the two Santa Rosas I had in a row didn't have anything to do with it.

Well there Mr. ( and I use Mr. loosely) "Wineyburger", it takes alot of guts to try an humiliate someone via key strokes. But for your information, not that I give a rats ass, when I asked the question I listed them from north to south ( thats top to bottom in case you don't understand)it only appeared that way after I sent the thread, otherwise I would have at least used punctuation.

Sarge, how often do you use Mr Loosely? And just what do you use him for? Oh, nevermind...

srgt.sensitive, I was not trying to humiliate you. I was simply stating that the cigars you listed are crapola. Take the dress off.

All a matter of opinion sir, smooches!
