Default Re: Tampa Sweethearts Bundles: Yay or Nay

Let me know if you get them and like them, I have been wondering the same thing but afraid to pull the trigger on them. I like the Savanelli ELR DBL Corona Maduro's for golf. Lately I've been smoking the RP decade torpedo, but would like something a little cheaper in the 5$ range doe golf that has great flavor but still allows me to keep my senses

I'm with ya on the lowering my price for a golf gar. That's my quest over the next month. I actually have had a cigar called La Villa Dominicana and it was pretty good. Keep in mind that I tend to like mild.

I just had a Number 4 natural last night and I was impressed by it. It's a very mild smoke that picks up intensity as it goes along. I liked it a lot. The smoke was not a pretty one. The wrapper had a serious case of sunspots and there was a tear in the wrapper but that didn't affect it at all. I will have to get some of these when I get a chance.

what's the story on these? I know they are really popular as far as bundles go and the ones I had were fantastic. Are they seconds?

I think the Savanelli is on the mild side, but again that could be compared to the other smokes I like. Worth a shot if you see them. I'll look for the Villa Dominica next time I'm out for cigars. thanks for the tip!

I like the 500 and the 50 Maduro, haven't had any Nats yet. Tough to beat these for the price.

They burn great. Not the prettiest sticks in the world and they are rolled fairly loose. Doesn't matter to me though. I have bought them 4 or 5 times and will buy more.

They come fairly wet too so give them a couple weeks in the humi before you have one.

have to agree there. in general everything from TS is shipped pretty wet, they use a basement setup at their site to maintain humidity. pretty cool actually.

they also have some new flor de ybor sungrowns they just came out with. all are pretty good but some humi times really brings them out. they are around 50$ a bundle though.
