Has anyone ever tried these? I have flirted with the idea of ordering some for years and just never have actually did it. It says they are made in the same factory as Hoyo, and I was wondering if they compare to Punch?

These remind me of the Consuegra seconds available on JRs for decades. If so, they are worth a flyer. Connies are seconds of Hoyo, Punch, Belinda, and/or ERDM. I keep them in my rotation constantly.

Will be checking them out Thomas. Thanks, I like all those.

You should enjoy them, but note they also have Consuegra Dominicans available, which I myself do not like. Stick with the Hondurans.

Consuegras have been a favorite on various Internet cigar groups, ever since USENET. I feel required to pass along the advice that they're better with age. And, they are!

I appreciate the help Thomas and Bob, I can certainly see some bundles of these in my near future. I love Punch, Hoyo, and ERDM but I just really don't want to pay what they cost right now. I know these prolly won't be perfect replacements but my palate only tastes like 3 flavors anyway. :tu

Make sure you give them lots of rest. CI sold these and they were very raw ROFT. A couple months made a big difference. More would be better. Please post a review if you get 'em. Price and sale are very attractive for sure.
