The Lot 826 Slow aged from Perdomo is my #1 favorite cheap smoke. These sticks taste phenomenal. Their only downfall is the construction and for the price there really is no complaint.

I smoke many a few of the Slow-Aged, too.
The trick to avoiding construction issues (wrapper crapping)
is to store them at 70 rh. I keep these in a separate humidor
at the higher level, & no problems for years. Try it.

What do you think?

Maybe it's me, but I've NEVER liked ANY Victor Sinclair cigar I've smoked.
After sampling about 4-5 different ones, I gave up on the entire line.:td

Not just you. Only ones I ever thought were any good at all were the little 4x40 triple corojo's that came in tins. Oh, and almost forgot....the primeros are not bad for what they are: a cheap, mild and fairly creamy connie.

Guys, I'm all over this...If there is a crap cigar bomb, I'm all over it. I got way excited about cigars and found a bunch of "great deals" that turned out to be not so great. Tell me where to send them!

Split em' between Frank & I "Steve" I'm always wanting to try new things since I am fairly new...or better yet send them to the troops (or is that too harsh for them?)

I've been offloading my infused to the troops (got a local girl serving in the sandbox...she's new to cigars and likes the pretty flavored ones)

Ones I have that I'll never smoke...a box of Carinos, THREE boxes of Augusto Reyes, a bunch of Oliveros XL (for Men)...yes it actually says that on the label. And a large assortment of other CBID orphans.

Never had any of those so I can't attest, however I am sure you could unload them on the troops. Or BOMB FRANK!:tu

Do you have any Maduros?

The Carinos are maduros. They sell them at Famous. If you want them, they are yours!
