It's got to be at least 15 years since I smoked a PG. You got me interested and will check my local B&M if he has them.
Out of curiosity, Moses, if they are so good why have you not smoked one in 15 years?

Just smoke Habanos... At that time 15 years ago, I liked the NC Partagas Limited Reserves more than PG's.

No, they are that good.

I could smoke more CCs, but don't. Each person's flavor profile is different. What I like may not be what my best friend likes. That doesn't mean that either of us have less class or taste than the other, it just means that we have different tastes.

There isn't a CC out there that tastes like a PG, or a Litto Gomez, or a Coronado, or a PAM '64, or an Oliva V, or a Taboo HSG, or a Tat Verocu #5, of an AF Anejo, or a... and I'm not going to give any of them up.

On the other hand, none of those tastes like any of the CCs I have in my humidor.

Ain't it grand that I can enjoy both and love life and live large?

My only request is this, I wish y'all would quit liking my favorites so that that prices can drop on them and I get get them for nearly nothing. Thanks!

Peace of the Lrod be with you.

Garmirians are great if you like a grassy flavor profile in your smokes. I have had several and liked them all, and they had a unique grassy flavor that is probably the best in the NC market.

They were rolled in the Davidoff factory under H. Kelners supervision prior to and during the 1990s cigar boom... I dont know if they still are though.

PGs are also hard to find... he has very few retailers and doesnt do Internet retailer sales.

Id suggest trying one of the stronger ones if you have the opportunity. The only thing bad about them is the price.
