Pinar P2000?

wwhwang

Found it on the sister sites (please don't hurt me, CCom. I loves you). Can anyone tell me if it's just a gag put out by Pinar or is it really 100% pre-embargo Cuban tobacco as advertised? Better question: Is it any good?

I fell for the trap and picked up a 5er a while ago. Smoked one right away and gave 2 or 3 away shortly after. Tough to tell if it's really 100% pre-embargo because my experience with actual pre-embargo (besides the camacho PE, which doesn't really count for these purposes) is null. Honestly, I'd say save your money and when you get enough saved, Corona Cigar down in Orlando, FL has some actual pre-embargo cigars from name brands for some pretty steep prices.

Like Rob said, there are actual Pre-Embargo CCs out there that are fairly easy to obtain. Prices are steep on some of them, obviously, but they are the real deal. Everything I've ever heard about the Pinar P2000 has been negative.

I just dont see how a 100% pre-embargo cigar could be good. Cuban tobbacco is the best for aging and 25 years would probly be prime that tobbacco is what like 50 or 60 years old. Even if well kept it would be way past its prime. Remember tobbacco will last forver if well kept but that does not mean that it keeps getting better all tobbacco has its prime.

Finishing up the P2000. I gotta say. I actually like it. It's definitely not worth the price tag but if it was in the cheap cigar range I would pick some up. It starts out very mellow with a hint of spice and more prominent notes of cedar and cream. When you hit the middle of the cigar it becomes very spicy and the cedar and cream are even more prominent. Big notes of black pepper toward the end.
