CroMagnon Cigars

Jon11 · 07-02-2013, 11:00 AM

How are these cigars? And are they all different blends....Anthropology, Cranium, EMH, ect. I love Viajes, how do they compare?

Remo · 07-02-2013, 11:02 AM

My experience was with the Knuckledraggers, decent smokes but. Little too sweet for me.

kelmac07 · 07-02-2013, 11:04 AM

I love the hell out of these!!! RoMa Craft comes in two main blends...Crommagnon and Aquitaine. I prefer the Cromagnon blend myself, but the Aquitaine is very good as well. Anthropology, Cranium, EMH, Knuckledragger, Atlatl, Mandible are the sizes in their line. I am also a Viaje fan, and Viaje has many more lines (Skull N Bones, Holiday Blend, Satori, HHG, Summerblends, Oro, Platino, Exclusivo) than RoMa Craft. I compare the Cromagnon line to the Exclusivo line. Bottom line...they are tasty as hell. I've been burning through a lot of these the past two months. When you see them...GRAB THEM...they can be difficult to find.

My favorite in the entire line is the Cromagnon Anthropology (corona gorda)

But I haven't had the Atlatl yet (have two 5ers enroute).

Here's the major difference...

Aquitaine: The cigar features a beautiful thick, oily Ecuadorian Habano Ligero wrapper. Inside this beautiful wrapper are three much sought after different Nicaraguan long-fillers bound by a unique Cameroon binder.

Cromagnon: The cigar features a beautiful dark, oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Inside this beautiful wrapper are three much sought after different Nicaraguan long-fillers bound by a unique Cameroon binder

Thanks Mac, you are about the most helpful cigar mother f***** I've ever run across. I know I don't post much but always value your opinions, bc they've been right on for the most part. Thanks brother!

kelmac07 · 07-02-2013, 11:17 AM

Anytime Jon.

Everything Mac said......but....all but one of those two lines that I've tried have all been rolled tight enough, I thought I was smoking dowels

bstarrs · 07-02-2013, 11:56 AM

I've still got to try some of these, they look really nice and I have noticed Mac going off about them all the time.

Dunkel · 07-02-2013, 12:17 PM

I smoked a Mandible awhile back. It was one of the ones before they got labels. While it wasn't a bad cigar it didn't do much for me. I'd smoke another one if offered, but I would never buy one.

Porch Dweller · 07-02-2013, 12:19 PM

I've only had the Anthropology, both wrappers. The Acquitane is good but I prefer the Cromagnon.

kelmac07 · 07-02-2013, 12:23 PM

I've never had a RoMa Craft stick with a band.

Zane · 07-02-2013, 12:55 PM

I had the CroMagnon for the first time this weekend with Mickey. Amazing smoke.

They are putting them on some of the new ones. seen em all over instagram

CigarNut · 07-02-2013, 01:19 PM

I have had the CroMagnon (thanks to a box split done by Mac!) and found it to be a very good cigar. The ones that I had were very well constructed, produced a nice amount of smoke and were very flavorful.

The newer releases of the Intemperances have bands, the ones I received from the NC MAW from Jaso had bands, but the boxes of em I saw at the shop by my dad's place had no bands.

And to me the Intemperance BA Envy has been the best of the bunch I tried so far. Literally made it 3 puffs in before I went to the shops email to dig up the contact info to get these in the shop.

Jefft72 · 07-02-2013, 01:46 PM

Worth a look if you are interested in the RomaCraft line is the Intemperance liga as well. It comes in EC (Ecuador Connecticut) and BA (Brazil Arapiraca). I have tried both the EC and BA and prefer the BA. The Envy (short perfecto) is my choice vitola.

kelmac07 · 07-02-2013, 04:15 PM

Completely forgot about the Intemperance...thanks Bear/Jeff. These are also tasty.

poriggity · 07-02-2013, 05:01 PM

Cromagnon knuckle dragger is the only one I've smoked, and I LOVED it. I need to get more, but funds are not available.

I feel you, man. I hate when my taste in cigars (and whiskey) is overshadowed by the reality of my budget.
