Shark is the nickname of one of the cigars in the Anejo line, the #77.

I know its called shark,just never heard of "Xtra Viejo".

Before I saw the total I added up what I thought it should cost just based on a swag in my opinion.

I came up with $110.

So in my opinion it's probably a few dollars off, but not something you just can't pass up.

Reserva Xtra Viejo is the full name on all Anejo wrappers.

 

[amateuraficionado]

I know its called shark,just never heard of "Xtra Viejo".

All Anejos are "Xtra Viejo".

Search the internet there are a lot of negatives about them.. I personally would not order from them from what I have read here alone.

 

[eringg]

look out for shipping charges with this company they charged me $9.00 for shipping 2 cigars.

 

[NASTY]

I have placed orders from these guys prior to joining CP....never a problem.

 

[Not A Nice Person]

Personally, I'm a little disappointed in the Fuente samplers this Yule---like the official 10-stick one, this assembled sampler is no exception.

I mean, c'mon . . . I can get Chateaus, 858's, and Hemingways all year long. Where's the BEEF?

Last Fuente holiday sampler I bought---it was either last year or the year before, can't remember off hand---had three Opus X and a Sand Shark in it!

[eringg]

I have to agree that's one of the worst holiday samplers I've seen needs more BEEF

 

[Goldie]

I don't think the price is too bad, but I would have to agree, there isn't much "meet" there.

Aye, it was two years ago, I still have my Sand Shark that I'm holding until I have a back up.
