Bought 4 of the new Cifuentes this weekend and was gifted a Diablo (Craig, take note).
Fired it up on the way to work yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. Aroma like an RyJ Reserve Maduro, nice rich taste, good burn and slow; would be a long-lasting smoke. The band called it a perfecto, but it was more like a coronal gorda or robusto, but a little smaller in the ring.
Shop guy told me they are flavored with cayenne, but he only noticed it after smoking a few of them in a row. I didn't pick up any spiciness beyond the typical maddie.
Didn't bother to check the price, and I don't think they're unusual/great enough to warrant a box investment, but a decent smoke. He had a box from RTDA that he could give out freebies from, so maybe your local dealer has the same deal?
Oh, and the Opus were in, no box sales . Prices were within reasonable distance of MSRP. I guess I could have bought 20 or so assorted singles......
