Cain F?

What exactly is this cigar? I haven't seen it on Ccom, and my B&M doesn't have the Cains in yet.

    It was a limited batch that came out with the debut of the Cain line. I'm not sure what the intent behind it was, but it was used as a "buy four; get a Cain F" deal in my cigar shop. Apparently it was a once in a life time run. But rumor has it (in my local shop at least) that their thinking of producing the Cain F for regular purchase. The blend is as follows: 32% Esteli Ligero 25% Condega Ligero 25% Jalapa Ligero I haven't smoked mine yet, but my friend who smokes full bodied cigars for brunch got green and dizzy from one draw.
    Daaaaaaaamn. One draw? It must have the funky stuff in it.

    Just smoked the Cain maduro over the weekend, wasn't bad at all. Probably not worth the $7.99 I paid for it though.

    I just ordered a 5 pack of the Cain F from Ccom. If I like these I will most likely be getting more just because they are a one time production. Hopefully they turn out to be worth it.

    Hmmm...interesting. I didn't see the Cain F on Ccom, must be a call-in only thing? I have one coming in a trade, if I dig them I will have to call up and order a few. Especially at 5 for $25.

    Those guys sound like they were smoking something else before they got to the Cain...something green.

    I find those two quite entertaining, All that rambling and mouthing off at the begining, and then go on to rave about the cigar, It makes me want to try one, lol.

    If you meant Cain or Cain F, the answer is Cain F.

    Ah, thanks. I wasn't too fond of the cain, kept having issues with the burn on both cigars... Unless the F is much better....

    I've read about these,im curious. I'm a big NUB fan. O Leccia knows his buisness. Tell me howthey go
    The Cain is a good cigar, just doesn't live up to the hype. They need a lot of rest, similar, in my mind, to the CAO eXtreme, though I perfer the eXtreme more.

    My opinion here, I think the F is better than the normal Cain. I thought the flavor was more pronounced and it had a greater complexity....or maybe the flavor was just more pronounced, hard to say as I wasn't really paying close attention.

    I agree, I picked one of the Habanos from my B&M, rested it for a month and was quite unimpressed when I smoked it.
