Saw these at my B&M and they look interesting. Extremely oily. However without having tried or heard of them before I couldn't pull the trigger on the $19 each after tax.

I see the msrp is in line with Ligas and there's currently a 5er here for $37 with 90 mins left. Anybody have an opinion on these?

Thanks,
Rob

Good opinion of PDR and Abe Flores cigars, but I"m a bit reluctant to pull the trigger on an unknown that's at my maximum price per stick. Try a search and see if anyone has a review out there. It's probably a great cigar, but it may not be in everyone's wheelhouse.

I read a couple reviews which were good. I suppose for a sub $40 5er there isn't much risk.

they do "sound" good..............couldn't find too many reviews either.......
it's a PDR...........

good to know you're going to fall on the sword for us...............
we'll expect a full review in a few months........
then, if they're good, you'll be expected to buy a few boxes and send us ____________________ Committee members some samples.

and then, and only then, will you be considered for __________________ membership, and you would be the third member from that

The AB-75 Maduro Limitado is a very good smoke at Cigar Bid prices.
Try to score a 5-Pack for $34 of the 6"x58 Edmundo.

No, not yet. I have a couple of them resting since I was told that they could use some nap time. They do look pretty good and every time I open up the cooler that has them, I keep wondering if I should just light one up.

I know they are. Here is my predicament...I have so much more to smoke that I don't want to smoke the good stuff all the time.

CK, I promise you, I WILL smoke one in 2014.

Finally ashed up a Paka Ali'i yesterday - it was very good! Easy draw, lots of smoke and very tasty. Have one more left and will wait a few more months before torching it up.

Edit (2015-07-28): found another box...and bought it! 🤦
