Zino Classic??

PuroFreakPuroFreak Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,132
Just wondering if anyone here had smoked any of these. I got one in a sampler from my brother for Xmas and I haven't heard much about them... Anyone here know what I can expect out of this one?

    they're made by davidoff and highly praised. I haven't tried one yet though. It's been on my list for a while, so I'd be interested in what you think of it when you do get around to trying it.

    I've never had one, either. I did have a Zino Platinum Sceptre, and wasn't impressed.

    Agreed. Though I will say that with a lower price, it would rank a little higher for me. I thought it had a good flavor profile and it was constructed well, but it costs too much for a fairly average cigar in my opinion.
  • urbinourbino Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,517
    Yeah, I'd go along with that. Good construction and good flavor, but not nearly enough of the latter to justify the price. Which vitola did you have?

    The Grand Master, which is a 5.5 x 52 parejo. If memory serves, you had the perfecto?
  • urbinourbino Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,517
    Yup. That's a helluva memory you've got, there.

    haha, I don't have quite as many years of memories under my belt, it makes it a bit easier to remember little things.

    I tried a few while in Vegas since Davidoff are in every Casino and for the price I was too happy with it. I thought the Zino shortstory was ok, but then again the price.

    Zino Short Story? I'm not real familiar with the Zinos but The Short story is from A. Fuente's Hemingway line.

    I believe with Zino it's called a "Shorty." Not a short story.

    Heh, why did I think you were older. Not like collecting social security but 30's or so ... Must be all that wisdom.

    Davidoff has some fuller bodied cigars though I doubt anything like like an illusione or camacho. The issue I've always had with them, aside from the attitude of most Davidoff smokers, is they all have a heavy leather, musty flavor that has just never apealed to me.
