Anyone had the Oro Reserva? Are they worth paying the like $65 shipped for a 5'er? The $58 + shipping from Fullers.

I would say that so far, it's my favorite Viaje...I paid more for them than that. Justin picked up a 5er at 3 AM.

I guessed :r

Didn't put in the order through or anything. I dunno I guess I'll wait for some more reviews, ~$13 a stick is up there for sure. I'd like to know that they are worth it.

Nah I'm good, I thought this was the same cigar as the Viaje that was #2 on Cigar aficionado. It isn't though.

Wasn't a CG, it's the same size as the Cohiba Genios but I doubt the NC sizing calls it a Genios.

That's the problem with LEs...you gotta pull the trigger before you get to hear what they are like. Because if you wait...they are gone.

Truth.

That's why I mostly pass. I wish the good LE's were then turned into regular production smokes. Chop a couple bucks off the price and crank them out.

I kinda like to know what I'm getting myself into. Especially in that $13 price range. Some of the best smokes out there are ~$13-$15. Got a lot of competition.

Lots of traffic here LOL !!! I'm glad we got the band squared away. I'm looking forward to VOR. VPR was decent. In my humble opinion, either still too fresh or simply not worth the price tag.

Where would you guys typically find these cigars available?
Noob question, I currently only have ordered from the devil site.
