These have actually mellowed out nicely.

What ever those small Opus X pyramid shaped ones are called. Fresh they are very peppery- or at least they used to be.

Cu-Avana Punisher...what a strong and peppery cigar.

Power Ranger. They are super harsh fresh, tons of spice/leather/wood. I felt like I was chewing on a cedar plank with spice thrown in. Too much fresh. But it mellows out with time and they become smokable.

I had one of these but I didn't care for it. I thought it was kind of weak in the flavor department. Maybe I got a bad one

Do you guys consider the 5 Vegas "A", La Aroma De Cuba, Oliva V, or the Cain 550 to have a pepper flavor profile?

If you like the strong pepper blast, don't wait. Those flavors mellow out over time.

Impressions are one thing but you should never draw conclusions about a cigar based on a sampling of one or just a few sticks from the same box/lot.

Hurry and blow through to the pepper-est cigars. Once your tolerance is pegged, you can start working your way back down and find flavor and nuances in less peppery cigars that you didn't know existed before.

At least that was my 'curve', though grossly oversimplified.

I agree with you Peter. I am willing to try some more. What I meant to say was the one I had didn't really impress me. Thats why I added maybe I got a bad one.

A lot of people really like them, I'm sure I just got a bad apple.

I was hoping to save this one. Oh well, I got it from a brother on here.............I have no idea how long it's been sitting before I got it.

I agree on this one, but totally manageable and quite enjoyable. Thanks Neens.

WOW! This surprises me, Josh! This for me has been one of the most consistent and flavorful cigars to date and I have smoked quite a few of them now.

Did you have the Habano version? Give them another shot.
