Good $4 cigar.

Habano

Im not a big maddie fan. With age im sure it would be great.

I can dig around, see if I have any and send you a couple if you'd like.

Thanks for the info and the kind offer. I'm thinking about whether to pull the trigger on a special on a sister site today. Box of 10 for $39.99.

That's about what they go for here, so yes.

I think I got my box for $37 iirc.

$37-39.99 is a good price.

They are strong for sure, when I was smoking stronger cigars I loved the maduros. I still like them alot just grab for one less often as my tastes have changed. I referenced the maduros as Rat Killers as when the Rats (after the second release) went down hill these killed the cost/taste factor out. They aren't "premiums" but totally worth the price to me, strength wise I'd say on the line of a LFD Chiselito .

Indeed they are strong.

Which is why 8 months after I bought a box of 10, I still have some left. Sent out at least 5 in trade/bombs. I thought I liked strong cigars early on, so I bought a box of pretty much everything in the MOW line but have been bombing out most of em.

I know I set at least a couple in my desktop so I wouldn't send em out. They're good for the money, but wouldn't go over $4/ea

I got a fiver on here last spring and have been enjoying them. By strong do you mean the nicotine kick?

I'm planning on buying a box eventually, they seem very popular right now.

Nicotine and pepper blast.

Its a full/full cigar all around.

Not my thing presently, but they are good smokes.

One of my fave coronas. I like the nats/habano better, but both good. Mellows a bit wiith age, some of the pepper subsides. Check free fall. Occasionally see it there, and can go as low as $31-32/10, IIRC.

I'll hafta burn one again. I don't remember the pepper kick???

Thanks delta, I will watch FF.

As my preferences have changed and my free time to smoke at near zero along with the temps I really like coronas. My favorite vitola at the moment.

I love them. I'm in love with them. I want to marry them. The habanos are like crack to me. I think i will light one now. Don't buy any please, more for me.
The maddies are good but not great.

Picked up about 50 of these(naturals) a couple years ago.OTT they were good but a little rough around the edges.Now however these are nice and smooth with a boatload of flavor........well worth the wait.

Ok, that seals the deal. If Ron gives a thumbs up on a corona, I know it's good stick. I'm gonna order a 10 er of the naturals.

I like them both.

Both are powerful firecrackers, and a full meal is recommended before enjoying.

The habano's are a bit better, to me, and I believe they are A.J.'s finest cigar.

Price point is right on.

I like the MOWPA but I tend to side for the maduro. Not rott but after some time in the humi they are good, rott they are a little harsh and bitter but once they get some time to rest that seems to go away and the flavors are good.
