How are they?

.....have three 6" x 50 coming next week. Will let ya know. Both the Habano and Maduro were excellent smokes years ago when made by Don Pepin Garcia.

They're on sale right now at the mothership.
Don't see the maduro available though...

Got some of the Ecuador Sumatra being delivered tomorrow. Will post back when I smoke.

You da man, thanks! =d>

I snagged a single. I will probably smoke it this weekend.

Mediocre construction. Mediocre flavor. Mediocre cigar.

I just received two Robs, but, I still have a couple dozen of the originals. I'll have to do a comparison.

Decent or good yard gar?

I smoked one of the original blend churchills last night. You could tell it was a Pepin blended cigar. Good amount of spice, but very smooth with a hint of sweetness.

I tried one of the new Robs this afternoon. Bitter and harsh. The only note I could pick up was mouth drying wood, and no Pepin spice. The wrapper split half way through, but the band saved the end. I waited until I got past the split to see if it improved. Nothing but dry wood. Not sweet cedar, but dry wood. Like smoking a 2x4.

Could they improve with age? Maybe, but I'm not bidding on any more.

Oh, and no clint, I wouldn't even put it in my yard gar category, and folks here know I smoke some pretty cheap cigars.

Well chit. I guess I'm a let these set up for a while.
