dannysguitar · 03-26-2010, 01:19 PM

Has anyone tried these? The box prices are good on CI and I'm considering jumpin' on a box. Any feedback would be appreciated! :-D

I have one I got from Mario. Maybe I'll smoke it tonight.

Are you looking for one of these too?

I may have sent you one, can't remember. I know you said you were looking for "a good value stick" so I know I sent a couple of those. Check you're mailbox later.

The ones I sent out to folks are good but fairly young. I had them boxed for a couple of months before I sent them out.

Excel, there's the Dark Corojo and the Clasico Criollo. They are different though. You have a Criollo coming to you as we speak. You might have a Dark Corojo as well, don't remember on that one. If I'd known you hadn't tried them with your recent buying spree then I would have definitely included one with the rest of your sticks.

No Problem buddy! And thanks for your generosity...

It will not go unPUNISHED! *lol*

Careful sport. This may end with multiple shots fired across the Rio Grande.

So far, kinda "eh". The cigar itself is a bit rough looking. The ash, while still on is looking a little worse for the wear.
Flavor wise, its basically bland tobacco tasting;a bit harsh. Its mild-med body, on the milder side and the filler is buring faster then the wrapper.

Lol. Ill be back with more updates.

Emjaysmash · 03-26-2010, 06:14 PM

...And, Back.

So, I had to put her down early, around the halfway point.
The smoke realy started irritating my throat, which made it even more unenjoyable. Flavor wise, it ranged from tasting like I wasn't smoking at all, to harsh bland tobacco, to some sort of fresh herb, like smoking bay leaves or basil.

IMHO:

That's too bad. I liked the one I smoked but thought it could really use some down time. Sorry to hear about your experience.
