Claymores keep me off of just about everything. Just sayin.

I have had the X series, and while a great cigar it does not compare to the OR Famous Nic 3000, or even later versions. The X series has too much spice.

Picked up a fiver of these based on all your recommendations. Mac sent me one, but I haven't smoked it yet so I literally have no impression at all of this smoke. You guys and your stupid gang mentality. I can't help but buy into it. Wife = not pleased.

Had one tonight that had a little over a year on it.

Absolutely brilliant smoke.

Just picked up a 5er from illinoishoosier with over a year on them...MMMMMMM!!!! Ferg, the one I sent you only has a few months on it.

I really want to try one but I can't get over the goliath sizes they come in. It's just not comfortable smoking anything over 50rg, atleast for me it's not.

Maybe one day I'll break down and pick up a fiver for when I'm feeling a little masochistic.

I acquired some last October & they've been sitting since. Guess I ought to dig one out & give it a shot. I agree with coastietech on the RG...a little more than I usually like, so I've been smoking all around them.

That's why the Torp's are my favorite. You can more or less make up your own RG.
