Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

The difference is that the lines above are advertised as made by them. There is a reason for CI catalogs no longer advertising Pepin's association with 5 Vegas Miami (this after a couple of months not even having the line in the catalog at all save for a couple of mixed samplers, the line has "re-appeared" now with no mention of Pepin's involvement).

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

:confused:

From CI's website:

"5 Vegas Miami is a gem of a cigar. Carefully crafted by the talented hands of Jose ’Don Pepin’ Garcia, maker of the industry’s most sought after cigars, this rare blend takes the 5 Vegas brand – already a fan favorite – to a whole new level of cigar superiority..."

I don't know who makes the cigars, but they're definitely still advertised using Pepin's name.

OOOOOOoooooh!:su

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I think I caught the DPG disease.......

Smoked a CI LEgends Yellow Label.....then.......bought a box that day.

Is there any help?

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Nope! :ss

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Those are really great for the price. Construction lacks in a lot of them, but the flavor is awesome! One of my go-to yard gars now.
:D

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!

My Father
My Father Le Bijou 1922
Famous 70 Garcia Family
Maroma Fuerte - "sandwich style" blend for Famous
Siboney Reserve - House Blend for Famous
Signature Garcia - House Blend for Famous
Los Imperialistas - Regional brand for the SE USA (not sure if this is still being made)

From Cigarmonster.com, regarding Tabacos Baez

Did I miss something? Does anyone know when this happened? I still see TB's at other shops.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I love it when this thread pops back up.

Just had a San Cristobal Lancero last week on the lake. It had a lite dusting of Plume on it. It was one of the BEST smokes I have ever had. And I have had my share of San Cristos too. I cant wait to try the S.C. Del Sol

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I wish I didn't spend so much the other day, I would get them as well.

DPG Black right now

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

this thread couldl go on for several hundred pages LOL!

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

yes it could. How are the 601's? Do they match up to Tat's?

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

:drAnother dpg whore checking in, i love the my father le bijou and the blue label line, but my everyday go to cigar is the cubao.:dr

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I love them all. Pepin Rules.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

just had me a cabi rx..... yumm!!!!

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Last night I had one of the new Tatuaje 7th naturals and today I had the 7th reserva. Both were very good, but I actually think I liked the natural more.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Just had my first My Father Le Bijou 1922 this afternoon. Needless to say I was impressed. Probably my favorite Pepin so far...... Kinda excited about those new limited edicions......... Too bad the sticker shock is keeping me from pulling the trigger.
-Dude

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Jaimes stuff is really good also. If you like the Le Bijou I would recommend trying out some of his new stuff. A lot of flavor at a very fair price.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

What a great smoke! I have had only one also but man I would love to get a Box.
It would take a while to get up the nerve (and the funds) to pull the trigger on a box.

Cool article I want in!

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I am craving a Blue Label in the worst way. I just need to drive a few miles and pick one up. Of all my cigars I have none of these in my humi's.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Like what?

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

The original My Father and the fairly priced, Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial come to mind.


I recently had an Art Deco. Part of the Nestor Miranda Collection. It's a cigar with 40% Dominican, yes, Dominican filler. Pretty darn good! Be on the lookout. They come in tins of 21 with the art deco look.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

also .. La Reloba -- two blends, I prefer the sumatra: for example --> http://cigarreader.com/2010/06/30/ci...father-cigars/

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Don't know how I forgot this one. I am a fan of both wrappers for this blend particularly the corona. -(P

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I finally pulled the trigger on the Cigar King brands last week. I'm sucking down a cuban diplomat tomorrow, can't wait.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Hirsh Y Garcia is my new favorite cigar.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Just ordered me a 5er of Don Pepin Blue Delicias

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I've said it for years, I think it's Pepin's best blend. My only problem is the price or I would buy more. They used to be priced more reasonably.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

My name is Doug, and I am a Pepin-aholic.

Let me tell you, I love almost everything he makes. I took the plunge this week and snagged a box + a few singles of the new My Father Limited Edition. Chances are this will be the last production cigar Pepin will ever roll entirely by himself, I couldn't help but get in on this. Pelo de Oro + My Father + Pepin / Jaime Rolling = Epic cigar.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Steve,

My local shop is running 40% off Cubao because they have a hard time selling them. Would you like for me to see what they have left? They said they'd ship anywhere in the lower 48!

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I've been curious about these... may just have to pull the trigger.

Cheers,
G

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Do they carry DPG in your local B@M. I am in charleston and I gotta say they have a pretty weak selection of DPG's. They might have some of his Ashton or TAT products but maybee just 1 vitola.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

What's the shop name? I'd love to find some No. 3's at a good price.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I think now a few of us sprung curiosity on this.. Pepin sticks "mmmmm"
I see the cubao is put in a 601 sampler, didn't it release before, seperately or was it made to be connected with the 601 series?

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Famous has had the Cubaos on sale at various times and I notice them popping up on the monster more lately

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I guess I'll have to pay closer attention to the monster these days.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Yeah, I've seen them a lot on there, but never the No 3 Lanceros :(

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I smoke a Vegas Cubana today at lunch that was very nice, and CI Legend Yellow that I was extremely impressed with a few days ago.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Truly Cigars in Florence, Alabama. 256-275-3601 They have the lanceros left and that may be it. Give them a call and tell em Jason sent ya....they'll ship em right to you.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Favorite Cubao. Great smoke. :tu

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Favorites...

601 Blues
DPG Cuban Classic
DPG JJ Series Maduro
Cubao Maduro

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

I'd have to go with either of the JJ as #1 for me.

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

:tpd:

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

almost picked up a 601 blue...maybe I should now :)

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

Any opinions about the Maroma Fuertes???:sh

Re: Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!!
 

They are not bad for a cheap stick.
