I just had a graycliff espresso last night with my buddy for his birthday and LOVED it. I didn't find it too strong.

Can anyone recommed a similar smoke? Graycliff's are not cheap and they NEVER seem to go on sale!!!

thanks

There isn't much that is like a Graycliff Espresso. I'd say try the Ashton VSG Illusion and Mayorga Toro Maduro.

Once in awhile a deal on at least some Graycliffs can be had on a 5er at cigarbid. Not technically a sale, more like the market working its magic.

They're tasty, but not worth retail, for sure.

I haven't found anything else that tastes much like an Espresso.
 
I had an Expresso as my first smoke at the BBQ herf (thanks Stewart) The best Graycliff I've had. Can't say what else would be close to it.
 
I had a PG about 6 weeks back and was not too impressed.
However, I had another yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed
it to the nub. Just goes to show, don't judge until you have
smoked a few. ;)

I hate to kick up an old thread like this but I snagged a 5er of these off cbid and noticed the cello was cut flush with the foot of the cigar instead of longer and folded under? Is this normal?

They are not packaged this way. As we know, many people do this for better exposure to the RH. Could be that these were purchased, cello cut and then put up for sale at a later time. ???

Like Infinity said... not normal packaging for these cigars.
 
I'm looking at one right now and it is folded over like any other cigar.
 
I've had a few of the robustos lately, maybe they just needed more time, my humi is spot on at 65%, but I just couldnt keep those suckers lit, they canoed, and had what seemed to be a hunk of "wood" in the center of them. Just wierd. I'd love to change my mind, I have one left, but it may be a while before I can bring myself to torch it.

ok time to swallow my pride, I e-mailed graycliff and this is what i got back

Hello Mark,

Yes, that is how the new shipment of cello that we received
are. The exact length of the cigars.

Thank you.
