For those who would like to try the REAL LP Morado, the one that got the 93 rating, not the reblended, resurrected crap sticks CI has been selling under the same name for the past year, now is your chance. From what I can tell, these are the original 2007 release, complete with the rare Cameroon wrapper, cedar sleeve and cedar tray boxes. A real gem of a smoke, and a steal at $39 to $49 per box. Once you taste one of these, you'll understand why I'm so upset with the current production of dog rockets that have been passed off as these premium smokes. Of course I've already grabbed a supply. Get them while you can, boys and girls.

Seen those, wasn't sure if they just had a pic of the "real thing" or were actually selling them.

If they're not the "real deal", they're going back, and someone is going to get an earful.

Is any size better than another from what you recall?

^I personally have never had the Beli, but Surfish1961 and I both agree that the Toros are better then the Robs, though you can't go wrong with either one. YMMV. Also notice that the sizes are slightly different, further proof that these are not the same as the current CI offerings.

Here's another thing I noticed when I smoked an orginal Rob and CI's Rob side by side last year. Even though the original says 4.75" x 52, and CI lists their's as 5" x 52, the CI stick I had was a couple ring sizes smaller, more like a 5" x 50.

I'm betting they don't have the cedar sleeves and purple foot band](*,)

^I'll know by Tuesday, and as I said before, if they are not as advertised, they're going right back.

I bit on the Morado toro's. I'm not fond of the Morado's now offered, but, many rave about these. I'm looking forward to trying them.

In hind sight, maybe I should have kept my mouth shut, and the one's they didn't sell may have shown up here, where I I could have snagged them for even less. Me and my blabber mouth, lol.

I bit on the torpedo since that is the size that got the 93. Also found a free shipping link 🙂

My palete (and others I've spoken with) say they are as different as night and day, but if not to your liking, don't forget CI's return policy. You can smoke one, and if you don't care for it, you can return the rest for full credit. How can you lose?
