Smoked my first Famous Nicaraguan 3000 tonight, toro size. What a great cigar, totally terrific. Leathery, spicy, and woody flavors, almost velvety on the tongue. Excellent construction. I got this in a PIF from BlackIrish. They're out of stock currently, but when they're back in I'll be buying some.

Probably my favorite NC, and one of my favorite cigars period.

I wish they would try a few new sizes though, with a bit thinner RG. Maybe a lonsdale or corona gorda.

If they made a corona I'd smoke them all of the time. I still smoke the robustos quite a bit, but a smaller RG would be awesome.

I'm with you Mark, I would love to see this in a corona gorda. But even in their current size I would love to get some more of these. I have only had one thanks to Shellie, but every time I go to Famous to check them out they are not available.

Glad you enjoyed it -- a great smoke, period. The price just makes it better.
