Anybody have any of the Credo sticks they're willing to part with? I have a well stocked humidor and about 400 DVDs...anyone? Bueller?

Excuse my ignorance but what is a Credo stick?

Not ignorance at all, no sir. Credo makes (or used to make) some pretty tasty cigars. Great blend, good looking light blue wooden boxes. Haven't seen any in years.

Eggman,

Thank you for your response and the education. Hmmm, I "unfortunately" do not have any to trade. I myself would like to try a few of these too.

Regards,

I bought a box 2 years ago on cbid for $24 and they were a really beautiful cigar, on the mild side, but put together quite well>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>all of them are gone! Sorry

well, in my early cigar days, I actually traded a guy at an OKC smoke shop a half box of Upmann cubans a friend smuggled from London for a box of Credos. My preference then, as is now, was for milder richer smokes and the cubans were a tad too robust for me.

I tried some Credo's seems like about 7 years ago? I echo the sentiments above, good smokes, on the mild side it seemed like (at least then) a recent review shows the following; (French? BOOOOO!_

Credo Pythagoras-Churchill

The Credo cigar line, manufactured in Santiago, Dominican Republic, was designed by the famous Belaubre family with a French flair. The blend is medium-to-full bodied and ultra smooth. Like you might expect from the French, they've got some foofy names for the line like: The Magnificent, Arcane, & Pythagoras, but don't hold that against them! These are great smokes. Our panel favored the substantial Pythagoras which is rolled with a blend of Dominican Volado and Ligero filler and binder tobaccos in the Piloto Cubano and Olor Dominicano varieties. The choice of tobacco composing the Credo cigars has thus been aimed toward a stronger, slightly more full-bodied flavor, while conserving the aromas that give Dominican cigars their distinctive nobility.

See the War time History of the French and then compare it to their cigar history.........would be very similar if they had attempted to promote more cigars!!
