From early 2016.
For a couple years, Cbid had them on FF for cheap......was in fact one of the better deals for a decent smoke back then.

V-cut, perfect draw, perfect burn, tons of smoke, very smooth creamy smoke.
Bitter chocolate and black coffee notes, some charred wood and occasional spice.
Strength up there for last third.

Always a good smoke.

I haven’t been real pleased with recent Garcia stuff other than a few blends, my ire is directly at the old blends being garbage compared to what they used to be. Weird that Tats have remained so consistent.

I’ve always been curious about the business arrangement between Pete and the Garcias. How much do the Garcias charge Pete for rolling his cigars? Does Pete have access to any and all tobacco grown by them? If Pete identifies a particular crop, can he call DIBS! on them? Many other questions but those for starters.

Well seeing how involved Pete is with the industry and customers…..

And he’s married to DP’s daughter…I really think it’s more of Pete staying in touch with his product out of passion. Seems like DPG is happy to be doing whatever TF he’s doing.

the best of the Jaime Garcia line was the Hawaiian Exclusive in a "lancero" (really a panatela - 6x46) vitola. My good friend Palama offered to grab a box for me before they disappeared years ago. Don't remember how much the box cost, but worth every penny....long gone...sigh...

From then on, if Palama said something positive about a cigar, that would cause my CAD to act up...couple days ago, he mentioned the offer at the tenski place and I kinda responded with a shrug, claiming I blew though my cigar budget for the year...only liked a couple SD lines...yada...yada...yada.........................................................................order will be delivered next week...sigh

He did the same thing to me. Bad influence, that guy

The blend of the “Lancero” was tweaked for the Hawaii market and in my limited time smoking cigars, gotta agree, it was THE BEST JG blend, EVER. Iirc, with the box discount, it was around $8 per.

Speaking of the tenski place, I’mma squeezing okole that I’m home when the mailperson delivers my order. It won’t be no small box!
