Pepin Made?

Another "Pepin Made" cigar... :laugh:

Cheap enough if they're any good :thumbs:

Business is business, I suppose. However, I don't buy from Holt's.

I dont understand how, but the Benchmades are awesome for the price.

How does Pepin continue to shell out all these smokes in the small facility there in Miami, I know he has Nicaragua, but man, he is a man with a mission

I've heard that these cigars are decent and contain the same characteristic wrapper of the Tatuaje black. I guess for the price with free shipping it really isn't that bad.

I had a benchmade a few weeks back and it was great. Nice cheap everyday Pepin smoke, just like Fumadores.

I tried a few Casa Royale and comparing them to the Tat Blacks is crazy. Nothing like them at all. They were ok but there is much better Pepin stuff out there.

I also tried the benchmade and with the 2 I had, I clipped the end and all sorts of short filler came leaking out. Wasn't a great experience.

For moderate priced Pepin, I reach for a Tabacos Baez or an Old Henry.

Tried a few Casa's and aren't to bad, I would defenitly grab a box for that price!!

A while back, Holt's ran a special with all the Holt's Pepin Blends. I bought two of them to get a decent idea of the smokes. The whole batch was very inconsistent in the flavor dept.
Some of the blends had decent flavor for a couple of sticks, with the remainders being horrid.
This particular belnd was horrible for every stick. But, I will eventually try them again.

I have smoked another one since I posted that review... and I didn't enjoy that one as much as the one I reviewed even. I ended up giving them away to friends. My friends liked them but they aren't regular cigar smokers. In the review I put them as almost equal to the San Cristobals but now I think they don't hold a candle to the San Cristobals.

That price is hard to pass up but I'd buy a single first to see what you think.

Back on Holt's as the High Noon Special... 12 sticks/ $35 shipped. Anyone light one of these recently?

<edit to add> I went ahead and ordered these up. I'm a sucker for a nice looking band. Not too much risk at $34.95 for a half box.
