    They're great. Much better than the KFC, and better than the Leccia black. Just smoked one on vherf

    I think I may try and get a 5'er. I thought the Leccia Black was good, but certainly not something I'd be buying up.

    kfc was terrible IMO. The black is at least a good cigar to me. I find it interesting so many companies are going after the pipe tobacco wheelhouse. I'll have to pick it up on an order.

    Anyone know if these should be kept away from other sticks? I heard that with the KFC.

    possibly... Latakia is very potent. Given Grey's experience with pipe tobacco, I'd imagine he will be able to know by smelling it. I probably would

    Good price...what's the word reviewers? Roman did you guys review this? If so you got a link? Anyone....out there that has tried this yet?
  • TridentTrident Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,005
    I didn't do a full review on it because when I was about to I got a head cold. The flavors like i mentioned are smokey BBQ, some oak, and a hint of coffee. The BBQ hits you hard to start and then mellows out nicely through the cigar. I wish I had more to give you guys right now, but until the head cold is gone I got nothing...

    I smoked 1 the other day Royln gave me, it was better than the leccia black, haven't smoked the KFC yet.

    Hmmm I liked the Leccia Black and the White.... Damn...

    Had one the other day, review to follow next monday. My two cents, its the best "fire-cured" cigar example out there. I do think the Leccia black is a better cigar in terms of being a cigar though. The American Puro was good, and i think will age very well. The KFC was rather flavorless to me on the draw, and the retro was not nearly as good as the Spectre. Anyone whom wants to know what Latakia/campfire/bbq pipe tobacco tastes like, the Spectre will deliver. If you do not retro, then you will miss most of what it has to offer though.

    I have 2 on the way… looking forward to trying them.

    Yum… although a "time to time" indulgence.

    Great write up. Ive yet to smoke any, but am excited to try it. I am wondering how these will age. Latakia loses some of that in your face smoked meat taste and aroma and becomes really creamy and subtle which I prefer. Sounds like there is no lack of the smokey flavor!
