I used to order 2 or 3 bundles of Connies every month. These seconds from the Villazon factory (Hoyo, Punch, ERDM, Ultimate) were often "seconds" only because the wrappers were blotchy or off-color, and smoked and tasted just fine, thank you very much. At $25-$40/bundles of 25, they were, and still are, as close to a steal as one can find.
Hmmm, mebbe I should get me some right now!
