You can also get fivers of the robusto at Best Cigar Prices.

I do believe Best Cigar has the old schools, and not the new mass produced "feed the masses" smokes.
This blend used to be special. I'm afraid it'll be reduced to crap. I sure hope not.

um...mass produced "feed the masses"??

So two B&M stores have these sticks, Famous is now the THIRD online store to have them (Discount and Best Cigar being the first two)...and they are now being ""reduced to crap""??

:confused:

Well, at least we won't have to worry about a "recall" due to paint on the boxes. Yeah, no "mass market" there.....

I just worry they'll go the way lots of good sticks go when they get popular. Like the JJ maduro, for instance.
Aside from that, I didn't say they were being reduced to crap. I said I feared they would if they got too popular. You said they were being reduced to crap, not me. :tu

The ones from Famous taste pretty much the same as the ones I picked up from Best Cigar to me.

Typically I hate to resurrect old threads... but I got to smoke one of these last night and man I liked this bad boy. I did some quick Google searching for it and found this thread. I didn't really notice it being as powerful as advertised but wow was it tasty. I must buy more of these :tu

These are a great cigar and you can get a bundle from Famous for a good price.
They were just on the Monster yesterday for $75

The cigar sounds good, but the most entertaining part is "The Lobotomizer." :r:r:r:r:r
