Understand these are supposed to be similar to the Leccia Black with fire-cured tobacco.

The Lecia Black is a good smoke.

Where's mine???

Wanting to try.

I don't believe so. The cigar you are referencing is the KFC (Kentucky Fire Cured) which is diff. THAT is supposed to be like Leccia Black...which, as a side note, I finally tried and it is MUCH diff. than a standard cigar for sure.

Thanks, you're right. But these are supposed to be much different too, aren't they?

This are more similar to a T52 IMHO. They can stand side-by-side with the Ligas for half the price. They are not as powerful but a welcomed addition to the DE family.

I would agree with efine in that they are a cheaper version...ala undercrown, BUT a little different still.

I only had the one, and like I said, I was drunk. I certainly didn't think of pitching it at any point.

:-k Cheaper version of the Undercrown??? That makes me think twice about these, especially considering the large ring gauge. And there's 'lists' waiting for these? 🤔

Found the UC's to be very smokey, and almost waxy in the way they burn. May still seek the KFC's only because I like the Leccia's.

I am about half way through my first one of these and I am enjoying it so far. Started off with a cocoa and pepper and now seems to be cocoa and I wanna say mint like note. I think they are worth the $7 price point so far. Then again this is the first half of my first one.

Just picked up 2 of these from my local. I don't think that this is going to be like the UC they look and smell different, I guess I will find out tomorrow night (smoked a UC tonight)

If you are not a fan of the UC I don't think you will like these any better. Just tried my first one. Smokes like an oily rag. Flavor profile: same 🤦

I picked up a 5'er at Myrtle Beach last week. They had just received a new box.

I've smoked two so far and both were enjoyable with great burn and flavor. I've seen some bad reviews about tunneling and being bland but I didn't get either of those wiht the two I smoked.

I'll wait just like with UC and Papa Fritas and scoop some up after everyone stops falling over each other with another new DE release
