Popular Post Corylax18 Posted January 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2019 It depends on the size, but the price has been steadily rising with his fame over the last few years. When we were there late last year they were 8-12 a stick. They also forgot to roll the three bundles that I had ordered a few months prior and had one of my friends check on twice. It wouldn't have been a big deal, but they only had a single bundle of Dahlias for sale, along with plenty of 56, 58, 60 and 64 ring cigars. None of those rg's interest me in the slightest, so I left pretty much empty handed. It was painful. I stayed out there for 2 nights a few years ago and sat with Miguel as he rolled me a couple bundles of coronas. I think they were 4 each then, I had the place to myself (no other tourists) for an entire day, Hector and I rode around the farm as the fields were prepared for planting, it was bliss. The last couple times I have been, there have been busloads of tourists. Hector, Miguel and Osvaldo are running around like crazy answering questions and doing a great job of hosting, but it isn't like it used to be. The pork is still some of the best on the island though. I couldn't be happier for Hector, he deserves all the credit that he gets, but I, selfishly, still wish it were the "good ole days." 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy_jack Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I suspect he has a lot of business from mules as well. It's amazing how all of this is blowing up on the conus side .Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubans, and good ones. But not what they are marketed as. They've got a pretty limited selection of usable molds out there and I have seen "Prieto Customs" for sale several times in vitolas that I know they don't have molds for.

Awesome. I didn't even ask about the price when I ordered mine, it really wouldn't have matter what he said. We went out on the 2nd day of our trip though.
