Fausto's at NHC

[maninblack]

Just checked their website and New Havana has the new Fausto's for sale, boxes are running 180 for the FT127 and 186 for the FT140. Considering these are based on the T110 blend, I may need to pick up a box.:noon

[Neens]

was thinking the same thing just which size.

[Sherlockholms]

Nice Kevin.

[Tyler]

They look so good. :dr

[neoflex]

So temping but all of my boxes are busting at the seams.

[MrOneEyedBoh]

yeah same here man.. Its sad haha. I cant use a cooler, because I wouldnt be able to keep the temps in there down.

[neoflex]

I know I will probably break down and at least order a 5er. I have been patiently waiting for these to drop. Just wish people would stop outbidding me on a tower on C-Bid but the last few auctions have been bought using the buy it now feature and even passed the price of the by it now feature. Clearly people don't care about trying to score a deal and would rather just win the pissing match.:sl

[MrOneEyedBoh]

yeah man, I mean the towers or homemade humidors at home is where its at. Even if you dont use it all up. Just leaves you that much more room. Well Im going to place an order for a 5'er of Avion, LCC, and Faustos. if you want you can go in on two or three of the 5'er of each.

[kelmac07]

Just grabbed a 5er of the FT153 (Toros) :tu :tu

[maninblack]

Sold out already! I knew I shouldnt have waited.

[MrOneEyedBoh]

haha manin I talked to NHC and they said they are getting tons more next week and these are going to be full production smokes. So no real rush.

[maninblack]

Good to know. Thanks brother!

[MrOneEyedBoh]

Np!

[kelmac07]

Their web site says they still have 5ers of:

FT127 - Robusto
FT140 - Robusto Extra
FT166 - Short Churchill

[maninblack]

Yeah I saw that, but I am interested in a whole box. Thanks Mac.

[Adriftpanda]

Get them boys. They are yummy, but a bit too strong for me. I have smoked a handful of these and they are tasty.

[EricF]

This the route I went for now just to try them out.

[maninblack]

Damn those look great Mac! Can't wait to get mine!

[Cornrow_Wallis]

NHC just reloaded their website if anyone else has been waiting. At the moment they have everything in stock.

[maninblack]

Better jump on it. They sell out fast. Although I guess this is a regular production line.

[Brutus2600]

Just a heads up, they have the Faustos and LCC's in stock at cigarsatyourprice now as well...made my own "new tat sampler" from singles and saved about $15 off NHC's price.

[Adriftpanda]

Also heads up, Mark (NorcalMark) over at Tower Pipes and Cigars also have a bunch in.

[Bill86]

Has anyone confirmed if these taste anything like the T110? Hard to believe for the like $6-$7 these go for at CAYP.

The Fausto tastes nearly identical to every T110 released after June/July 09. Fausto vs Avion? I smoked the 127 this afternoon, and the Avion yesterday afternoon. I liked the Avion better. I'll conduct more research tonight :)

[montecristo#2]

I smoked the Fausto Short Churchill a couple of nights ago and the Avion the weekend before. Between the two of them, I liked the Fausto better. The Avion was a little one dimensional for me and the flavor profile was not as defined. I am eager to see how both smoke after some rest in the humidor for 6 months.

Also, the Fausto kicked my ass. I have not been that buzzed by a cigar in a long long time. I am usually a fast smoker and it took me two hours to get through this one.

[klipsch]

Just finished another Avion and have to say that I found it much more enjoyable than the Fausto I smoked this afternoon. The Avion had the flavor that the Fausto reached about two thirds into the smoke...right out of the gate. I've got another Fausto to smoke (140 I think)...but right now, I couldn't see myself picking up a box of them. The one I smoked reminded me too much of the last box of T110's I opened...which were the foil wrapped, unbanded sticks that were the final release. It was so disappointing that I sold the entire box. I'd pick up another box of the Avion if I could put together the funds. Regardless...the price is right for any of the cigars in the Fausto line.

[heavyd]

The Fausto is one powerful mf. More like a t-nuke than a t100 :).
