July 30, 200917 yr Author comment_260977 I am smoking a 2 year old el rico habano rico club maduro. I like these quite a bit. Report
July 30, 200917 yr comment_261027 A friend of mine really likes those 5 Vegasesees. it was different, but enjoyable. started out with a really easy draw, which weirder me out. but the taste was good, nothing amazing and intricate, but good. everything improved towards the end of the cigar. draw got more "normal", taste a little fuller. on the whole not bad for my newbie pallette. apparently they are like don pepin's budget brand. ooh, I bought some ronson lighters from wal-mart this week. much better then wood matches!

July 31, 200917 yr comment_261326 Smoked the big Tempus and umm...something else I can't remember during the Cannonball yesterday. Both were "meh." Report
August 3, 200917 yr Author comment_262061 I liked the "The Edge" lancero I tried. I've heard there might be counterfeit edges out there. Of course, it could just be that you don't like them Report

August 4, 200917 yr Author comment_262673 Had a JLP yesterday. Not enamoured, but for under $3, it's hard to complain. Report
August 4, 200917 yr comment_262678 Are you happy @ $3 and just not in love? Or totally unimpressed? Report
August 4, 200917 yr Author comment_262683 At $3, I preferred the El Ricos, but you can't get those for $3 anymore, so I'll probably end up ordering more. I'll say I'll reserve judgement til I've had a few more. I still appreciate the pointer, they're not dog rockets. updated: trying another one now Jose L. Piedra Brevas Not bad for a cheap cigar. Construction is rough, but flavor isn't bad. Edited August 4, 200917 yr by grawk Report
August 4, 200917 yr comment_262842 oliva serie g. got a nice oliva score at the local b&m today. apparently it's oliva month. 10 olivas for $40. some G, some O, some V, some Nubs, some CT reserves. Report
August 4, 200917 yr comment_262851 They're machine-made, so construction can occasionally be spotty. Revisit them after they've had a rest, they're usually a bit more impressive than that. I can't recall which, but it's either the brevas or the cremas that my friends prefer. Report
August 5, 200917 yr comment_262872 Jose L. Piedra Brevas Not bad for a cheap cigar. Construction is rough, but flavor isn't bad. Have not tried the Brevas but did go through a bundle of the Cazadores. Not bad but for a little bit more you can get the Por Larranaga Panetelas which IMHO are far superior. Report
August 5, 200917 yr comment_262878 We've had nothing but bad luck with the Cazadores, which is a shame, because the size is a lot better than the smaller JLPs. The PLPs are pretty good, but a lot more expensive these days, esp. considering the size. Report
August 5, 200917 yr Author comment_262926 they claim "totalament a mano" on the box. I've had one of each so far. We'll see, I've got 24 of each left Report
