    Hmmm we may have to change that.

    Just keep it small, is all I ask. Make mine a pipe bomb instead of an ICBM. Don't hurt me, Hammer.

    Pete's newest line is coming out any day now, the Ambos Mundos. He is targeting the every day smoker with a price point slightly under $5.00. There are only 2 sizes, the Toro and and Robusto. Only 2 blends, the Habano and Sumatra. Hope I made you drool by letting you know. :)

    Dammit! A Pete Johnson Sumatra, I'm in trouble. Are these long filler? I know his last attempt at being reasonable is a mixed filler which is fine but not something I'd typically buy.

    Yep, long filler. Just his attempt at making a reasonable priced "Every day cigar"

    sorry for getting off topic but for those of you who have the AVO's in your favs, have you had all of the 5 or 6 lines? I'm curious about trying AVO and though I think I had an AVO a while ago I really can't remember. I know the Domain is a favorite but are there any others worth a go?

    I really like the AVO maduro. Nice smooth maduro. I also like the 787. Like the domaine, a very classy smoke. The XO isn't too bad, wasn't as good as IMO as other. I have not had the Signature line yet, but one is resting in the smoking humi.

    Sorry, the Domaine is the only one I've had. Kas likes their standard line quite a bit, IIRC.

    I do like the standard line Avo a great deal. The Signature adds a ton of Spice and kicks it up to a Full bodied smoke, I like the Ecuadorian wrapper on the Signature as well. The XO adds a different flavor profile that is really nutty/ cedary. But, Urbi made the Domaine my favorite. All in all Avo is a top notch cigar with all there lines. oh yeah, the Maduro is pretty tasty too. I rarely see them in shops but they can be found here, a little pricey but worth the price.

    Hmmm, gonna have to try that one. I LOVE the cedariness of the Padilla '68.

    I think one of my new really up there favorites is the puch rare corojo. I heard these age well and i'm contemplating buying a box but they have a flavor i just cant get off my mind.

    The rothchilds in these are excellent, I love 'em
  • phobicsquirrelphobicsquirrel Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 7,349
    These seem to be liked a lot, I may have to try one. dammit, another one I have to put on the list..... You guys don't make this very cost effective for me.

    That is quite the list my friend. I particularly enjoy the Oliva family maduros as the conneticut shade is a tad light for my taste. The Casa Magna is at the top of my value list as well - another great smoke.

    I've got one I purchased a month ago at my B&M in my smoking humidor. I smoked one right out of the store - eh it was ok. Burned like $hit, and the taste wasn't all that amazing. But I figure with a month resting it should be better. I'll send it your way today if I can.
