Arganese Maduro

Retircs1Retircs1 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 444
I received my 20 sticks today toro Arganese Maduro. the first time I have ordered 20 from CC the box did not have any humidor bags in it I don't know if that is the norm when you buy 20 sticks in the past orders for sampler's 7 to 10 I always got them. anyway, the sticks were nice but a little flat on flavor but smooth. it actually got increased in strength mid way then it went limp with flavor. I would not get this cigar again but it is not terrible nor is it really good either. I will order something next week to put in my new humidor another 20 of something more full bodied for a maduro. "With a medium-bodied profile and a host of fine flavors including chocolate and espresso, this creamy handmade has just the right amount of sweetness." must be some other stick they are talking about

    When I first started, this was my "go to" stick. Haven't smoked one in a while but I always felt that for the price, you couldn't beat them. I'll have to dig deep to find one but I do think I still have one. Also, I recently saw some rebranding done with Arganese. Does anyone know if anything changed?

    Never had one of these but for less then $2 a stick I just would never get my hopes up. IMO the lowest you should go is $6-7 a stick...most companies with such low cost are just trying to pump out a product and hope it sells....others actually put pride behind the name

    I got mine from CC they were advertised as a new stick. so I tried it. It was not as good as I thought it would be. it is smooth, nice ash, limited flavor and had a limp finish. as son as I get la Gloria or one of my favorites I will move these to the lower draw :0

    hmmm here on CC it was advertised as a new arrival , it was my understanding that some times they under price them to allow more product to get out to the consumer a marketing tool :). it was smooth nice draw no knots, the leaf stated to unravel at the foot after lighting ( just go them in Monday).

    I have to apologize to CC to the false claim I made. This was not a new arrival it in fact was a Clearance stick on CC . I am sorry for the bad info. I am new to the web page and I want to be fair and truthful in my posting. I am a fan of CC and have received what I have order every time. So again forgive me CC. this Stick was not a NEW "A" Very respectfully, RetirCS1 USN

    If you just got them Monday perhaps some rest time in the humidor will do them some good. I've not had one personally but have had similar experiences with cigars that were recently delivered. Give 'em a couple weeks or a month of rest and smoke another.

    Thank you , Zero, jd50ae, and yankeeman for your input I really do appreciate it. I am trying to build up my humidor and I did not know about the aging needed after receiving a new 10, 20 or 25 ct sticks. what has been all of your experiences in cigars that are ready to burn right off the truck? or as I understand it cigar continue to change as aging continues? And all cigar should be given time to rest? thank you again,
