There are better cigars but no better value than El Suelo. Got a 5-pack of delicious Pete Johnson/L’Atelier cigars for $12.

The 5.25x56 Terreno is well-constructed, gobs of smoke, spicy, not strong or peppery, and has a good finish. Nubbed it.

Brickhouse Corona Larga
Liga Privada No.9 Belicoso Oscuro
Herrera Esteli Norteno Robusto Grande
Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro Robusto

All they have to do is make their way over here. Hopefully not picked up by customs :P 

Should really pick up a box of 1964 Padrons

Great news! I can't wait for all these to rest for a few years :)

I don’t think I would rest them too long. I know the consensus on Liga Privadas are that they are better smoked out of the box and don’t really improve with age.

That’s the case with most NCs. Let them acclimatize to your humidor a bit. But after that, smoke them! Some get better with 1-2 years, but most are optimized for smoking right away.

Had a Dirty Rat the other day. I don’t like much of the Liga line, but I loved that cigar.

I would love to see a note like this in a box of cubans...

Haha, yea, that'll be the day. I'd say it's a bigger chance/risk that they remove the box codes altogheter than letting us know who rolled them.

First order through...

Nice big bag of Liga Privada No.9 Belicoso Oscuros

 

Box of Olivia Serie V Melanio Robustos

 

Love the Liga Privada line.  Give the T52 a try.  Youre gonna enjoy those No 9's.  No need in setting them down for years.  Just let them acclimate to your humidor for about 30 days or so.

I looked around at my local NC vendor and damn the prices are ridiculous. I have been smoking cigars for just shy of 20 yrs and I loved opus x and Padron 1964 for several years. When I first started smoking CCs they were more expensive than NCs. Now, just the opposite. It's nothing to pay 15.00 for a decent Padron 1926 or a Pepin Garcia selection. For that kind of money I can smoke Montes and Cohibas all day long. I have gotten to the point where 99.% of my cigars are Cuban. I am hopelessly addicted to the Cohiba/Monte taste profile and I just can't get excited about a 16.00 Padron -1926 #6 or a 30.00 family reserve. I do buy a box of Fuente sharks at Christmas each year and I hand them out to my buddies more out of tradition than anything else. All I can say is Thank God for FOH
