Pepin Whores Re-Unite!!! - Page 3

doctorcue · 11-29-2008, 01:39 PM

I am a fan of pretty much all that Pepin makes. Perhaps it is the similar flavor profile across the lines. They all don't taste alike but I think I like the varying amounts of pepper blended in with different flavors (say a Tat Cojonu 2k3 vs a San Cristobal Guajiro). There are some lines that aren't as good as others; yet my favs always seem to hit for me:

Tat Cabinet (aka brown label)
Tat Havana (aka red)
Tat P series
San Cristobal
601 Red, Blue, Black lines
Mi Barrio
DPG Blue, White, & Black
Vegas Cubanas

I need to hit a smoke after typing this!

Tatuaje Havana's
All 601 blends
Mi Barrio
Cinco Vegas Miami
CI Legends

Not a huge fan of
Tatuaje Browns

Just finished off a DPG JJ Maduro. My first. Very nice. I was suprised at how spicy it was.

BORIStheBLADE · 01-11-2009, 12:14 PM

I was gifted a DP 601 blue and had to buy a box after I smoked it. Does that make me a whore??

I smoked the DP blue and liked it.
I smoked the DP 602 green and it didn't do much for me, but to each his own.

Next on my radar is a DP JJ maduro. I need to find one at my local smoke shop.

Whats this Mi Barrio you weirdos talk about?

Smokin Gator · 01-11-2009, 02:22 PM

The DPG Blue corona gorda has become one of my favorite NCs. I bought a 5er then another... then I bought a box of them. They only come in a box of 50 so I should be set for a while!!!

Mi Barrio is an E&O(601) cigar that's of course blended by DPG.

It's 7.5 x 52 and a powerhouse.

Anyone want to volunteer to organize a box split? Those look good!

theonlybear4CORT · 01-11-2009, 06:11 PM

well your not stupid but I do agree with you

bobarian · 01-11-2009, 06:17 PM

Wow, three pages of Pepin whoring and no mention of the best blend???

Try the Hirsch Y Garcia panatela and you will know of what I speak.

Smoking Dragon · 01-12-2009, 06:10 AM

Oh great now I'm gonna recieve another box from CI. I think I might have to start building my own doghouse for me to move into, when my wife sees all the boxes. But I just can't help my self when DP are on sale.

rizzle · 01-12-2009, 10:31 AM

Over the weekend had a JJ and a Petit Tat. I think I'm going to buy a box of the Petits to keep on hand. I really liked that for a quick smoke and with newborns my time has been very limited lately.

Skywalker · 01-13-2009, 12:15 AM

Any opinions on the Troya X-tra???

Tzaddi grifted me a sampler and I have tried one yet!!!

sikk50 · 01-13-2009, 12:54 AM
