Has anyone tried these? I heard about them like 2 episodes ago from Colin Ganley on Dog Watch Cigar Radio. Its the Origen blend in a shape that J. Fuego uses to test new blends. I guess he is selling this Original size in a 5 pack (no labels, just 5 cigars rolled in a piece of paper). Its fatter in the middle, like 5 by 44 maybe? It comes out to like $2 bucks a cigar according to Colin and he was raving about them. Had not heard much else about them, was curious if anyone had tried them.

Pretty decent cigar IMO, I think I like the Delirium a bit more though.
I paid around 7 for a stick but if you can find them for 2 I would say jump on it...
Jesus Fuego makes a pretty fine cigar. :tu

The 5 pack I am talking about is $12 total, no bands or anything. A pure testing cigar.

I just bought a box of these yesterday (12 5-packs) after visiting with Mr. Fuego about the stick. They retail for $12.50 per 5-pack, though I got a discount for buying a box. They are a delight to smoke! They are a rather rough shape, as they are not made in molds. Tapered at both ends, with both ends open. You can get them at Cigar Shop & More in Addison, Texas. (They have a web site with contact info.)
Came across this thread looking for more info on J Fuego Origen offerings. I bought a bunch of the Belicoso at a local event and fell in love with them. I recently found the Original 5 packs at a few places here in Hawaii for around $12. I gotta get me a bunch more as they make for a great late night (or anytime) inexpensive quick smoke.

That's nuts! Never had the Origen but I love the 777s.

We have the Origen in the cigar shop I work at in Punta Gorda called Olde Punta Gorda Cigar . It is a great little cigar.

It is a power house of a little cigar. Full bodied and full of flavors. I pick them up for about $3 a stick.

Just smoked one this evening at a J Fuego event. Very nice smoke, love the rustic perfecto shape.
I wasn't crazy about the Origin but I'm very fond of this new size/shape. I've been referring to them as The Origin in the Soft Pack

Just found these. I too like the unique roll and shape. Nice 30 minute smoke.
Just FYI - Atlantic Cigars has them for $94.50 for 12ea-5packs=60 stick 94.50/60 = $1.58 @ stick heck of a deal IMO

These are very tasty. Have not found them anywhere for less than $ 14 per five pack. But easily worth it. :2
Been buying them by the dozen (packs) from Atlantic and Hilands. I alternate between case of Gran Reserve and Origens. GF and I have been through about 2 cases of each. Sangre de Toro is my next order.
These are incredible cigars for the money. I can't decide whether I like the Origens or Gans Reserve's better, so I'll continue to alternate. :) Hope the SdT is as good as the other two.

I like the Sangre de Toro's a bit more than the Origen's. They are just a tad stronger. Havent see the reserve yet. :2

I pay $15 locally, but they're great for short smokes at work
