The only DPG's I've smoked (all from the same sampler) are the :

Pepin 5 Vegas Miami-liked this one, a good value if $3.00
DPG Series JJ maduro-my favorite of this group, good burn, great flavor, would buy again.
DPG Blue label invictos-constant touch ups and went out once, like V Vegas Artisan's better
DPG Series JJ natural-wrapper dis-assembled, OK if it was $2.00 and would hold together, meh
DPG Black label Cuban Classic-lots of touch-ups, mediocre everything, double meh

It seems every time I try to go to a "higher plain" with my cigars, I get slapped back down. My experiences with the Oliva line are even worse:confused:

I recently tried DPG blue again. It was not anywhere near the first release I smoked. Whilst the first release was well balanced, the current release strength overpowers the flavor (kind of like the Cain).

:tpd: Well said Ronnie!

they suck balls! ;s

:rolleyes: Anyway.... as for not getting DPG smokes, then you just aren't supposed to. Its better to know that and admit rather than continually spending money and smoking stuff you don't actually like. I feel the exact same way about Fuente, and especially Camacho, but others love them. More for them.

I sure hope you find some brands that you can love as much as I do his!

I'm definately with Doug on this one.
