Re: Garcia Y Vega
 
Most of us smoked some pretty disgusting stuff when we started out. It sounds like you are embarking on this journey in the right frame of mind. Experiment, taste and try as many different things as you can. I do not concur with the poster who said to ignore Macanudo's, there is a reason they are one of the top selling(if not the top) brands on the market. You are correct that the Garcia Y Vega is a step up from the Black and Mild. It has a whole leaf rather than homogenized wrapper.

Although unintentional, most of us look down upon these entry level cigars in the same way we look down upon flavor cigars such as Acid's and the CAO flavours line. But everyone has to start somewhere. At some point you may decide to move to a hand made short filler cigar and then to long filler premiums. But try as many different smokes as you can and enjoy the ride.

Be sure and take a few pics of your fishing expedition and post your thoughts on the GyV. :tu

Bobarian, the wrapper on the Games actually is a homogenized wrapper as opposed to whole leaf.

OK, so I did get a 'bit' creative with my review of the cigar... just a bit. :D

Funny story on the pics of the cigar, Photobucket actually pulled them due to TOS violations, I swear it looks just like a penis. However I found them on my PC and attached a couple here. :ss

Enjoy. :tu

Sorry, I was just going by the description on Famous. http://www.famous-smoke.com/garcia+y...ars/item+25773

I have never seen or smoked one before. My son in law gave me one in a plastic tube a while back and that looked like a natural leaf. ;s

Nah...If I'm going ultra cheap (nothing wrong with it) then I'm going Clint Eastwood (Ratty, Ugly, Tasty, Sweet, Shaggy Foot).

I'll try to get pictures :p Trying to look up reviews for this Cigar it seems so mixed! some love it some despise it, but I also notice the majority of reviews seem to love it for putting weed in it....which is pretty darn lame.

You gotta start somehwere. I remember my gas station cigar smoking days. Check out www.cigarsinternational.com or www.jrcigars.com. The more cigars you try, the more knowledgable you will become as to what you like. I know a bunch of people who won't smoke a handmade cigar as they think it's nasty. They choose to stick with their good ol' Phillies and White Owls.

My bad, I think this is actually correct. I chopped one up and it did have a leaf wrapper but a homogenized binder on it. Crazy. ;s

I'd agree - I have too much respect for cigars AND/OR weed to spoil either. :r

As for GyV, there are many worse drugstore stogies out there. When I fly, I pack up my good smokes yet stick a few cheap sticks in my coat's inner pocket to burn while I'm waiting for my ride - ones I don't mind tossing halfway through. GyVs in tubes work great for this, both in the hauling and the tossing phase.
