WTF are they Isy?...and why so expensive?

These were rolled over a year ago and put away for aging. Search is YOUR fiend, Gary. BUt I can tell you the MSRP is $20 and $25, not $16 and $20.

Where has that 'personal touch' disappeared to? You move to Florida and you turn into Doc

I was able to try one of these pre-release a little over a year ago at an event that Pete attended (yeahthatsme had one also). It was an excellent stick then, and I would be curious to try one now that they’ve aged for a year. Pete called this his “Padron killer”, but I’m not sure I would go that far. I’m not 100% sure it’s worth $20-$25 per stick, but I wouldn’t mind trying another 1 or 2, just to see if it is as good as I remember it.

I think that for anyone to call anything a Padron killer is quite a bit of a stretch.

x3. I am a huge fan of Tatuaje but come on. Padron are in a league of their own. Nice try Pete.

I'm smoking the robusto right now. This cigar has much aging potential left, as the tobacco still tastes just a bit young. But I'm 2 inches into the stick as I type this, and the flavor and body is starting to really pick up...completely different profile than when I lit it up. I'm really starting to enjoy this stick. I'll get back to y'all with my conclusions.

The thing I most remember about the one I smoked was a really nice sweetness to it. It very much reminded me of an Epernay in that regard.

I know what you mean...started picking that up halfway through the cigar. Finish is very different.

 

[ironpeddler]

...and the verdict is?

Tasty and worth a try?

 

[Anthem]

I have been dying to try these and hope to not only see you at the show Isy but try one of these bastids.

 

[w00ts!te]

The few I have had weren't worth the money IMHO. Started smooth, 1/2 inch in starting getting really hot, by an inch in it was too hot to smoke and I am not a fast smoker at all. Probably 1 pull a minute but when it started getting hot it was about 1 pull every 2 minutes.

Just got mine in the mail. Very impressive box, anyway. Haven't tried one yet - will let them "rest" and try one soon.

John, do keep us posted on how they smoke for you.

Let em rest, John...I think you'll get MUCH more out of them by letting them rest for a decent amount of time, no matter how tempted you are to trying it soon.

Wish I could, Matthew. I recently decided that I won't be attending...too much going on.

Smoke the robusto last night. The flavor was outstanding! I can't compare it to anything else I've smoked, other than some well aged CC's.
