Ok, so I got a deal on a box of these in the toro size for 90 bucks. I've never tried them, but I like everything I've tried from DPG so far, so I figured what the hell. What can I expect outta these?

As I said, blues are one of my all time favorites. I can produce them in all three bands. 🙂. Also a fan of the occasional green.

I'm a fan of the blue as well. Great flavor profile and produces lots of smoke. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

They are very good but full bodied. Age them a bit if you want to lose the edge. ( I have only had the orig).

One of my all time favorites. One of the first cigars I bought a box of. You will enjoy them. I do not find them too full bodied. Just tasty.

Well, they just came in today. I'll probably let them sit a while and try one this weekend. They look pretty good.

Well I tried my first one after leaving them overnight in my cooler. Very full flavored and powerfull. It's a pretty earthy cigar with a lot of coffee flavor and some dark chocolate. Reminded me of a much stronger version of the la herencia core. How do these do with some aging?

They age well. Smoother out a bit, more chocolate. I think these are an excellent strong maduro in the "daily smoke" price range.

Did you get the fine grit from it? Almost like they take a 1000 grit sandpaper to the wrapper before shipping.

I much prefer the green. Something going on in background of blue that just doesn't do it for me...I think it is similar to whatever it is about the MBIII that misses with me. Not bad, but no better than many other $3-4 maddies avail here.

I can't say I noticed a gritty texture. Did you have the originals or the new ones? The ones I got have a box date of October 2009, so maybe they just mellowed out a bit. Overall, it was pretty smooth. I'll have to give the greens a try.

The greens with a little age are pretty nice.

Also love the Blues and also picked up a box with the new ( read new..old) bands....you know the ugly ones and have been letting them rest. It's been several months now...I'll have to give one a shot. Hope they're good as I've only got a couple originals left. 🌫
